description This document is a postcard from Paul C. Arnold to Claud Arnold from France. It is postmarked Sep 17, 1918 from when it reached the United States, so it was probably written earlier in September 1918. The postcard shows a black and white image of a photograph of a French city scene with buildings and people walking in the street. There is no caption. Paul C. Arnold writes to his sister about his health, his hopes to come home, receipt of news, and an acquaintance trying to get into the United States Army. The White family has ties back to the Arnold family through Stella Arnold White. Arnold family siblings Stella Arnold White, Paul C. Arnold, Claud Arnold, and Ada Arnold Sides stayed in close contact throughout their adult lives. Stella Arnold White married Leonard H. White Sr., an inventor who started the Birmingham Fabricating Company. During the First World War, Paul Arnold served in the military with the American Expeditionary Forces and saw action in France. Leonard H. White Sr. also enlisted during the First World War but was not sent overseas.
