description This document is a letter written across a series of 2 postcards from Paul C. Arnold to Ada Arnold Sides dated June 2, 1919 from Is-sur-Tille, France. These postcards were most likely sent with other postcards or letters as the second postcard ends mid-sentence. The first postcard shows a black and white image of a photograph of a group of soldiers sitting on a vehicle with a caption of "In an American camp.". The second postcard shows a portrait of French military general Ferdinand Foch dressed in military uniform that was completed by the famous artist Joseph-Félix Bouchor. This postcard has a caption of "Marshal Foch", a second caption of "To the American Forces: "Your high spirit, your faith, make decisive victory sure for us", a third caption of "A portrait by J.-F. Bouchor", and a fourth caption of "Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur. Official painter to the French Armies.". Paul C. Arnold encourages his sister to continue writing to him and talks about food. 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.
