Eddie V. Rickenbacker WWI Diary
Capt. Edward V. Rickenbacker's 1918 wartime diary entry. (03/30/1918). Raining after breakfast so John Wentworth and I took a truck for Epernay. Had a bath and dinner. Also took a look at the new coats we are having made with open collars. Returned about 4:00 P.M. On arrival found we were ordered to move tomorrow morning for Epiez. Naturally everybody must pack and it is still raining terribly. Of course we shall fly over. This camp is just outside of Toul, the American sector. No doubt we shall soon be doing regular work over the lines. We are also having Easter dinner tonight to eliminate the packing tomorrow.
