This folder contains 10 letters from William H. Sager to his wife, Elizabeth Mopsik Sager. The correspondence focuses on William’s concern for Elizabeth during her pregnancy and after the birth of their daughter. He writes often about receiving or missing mail and packages, sending money, enclosing photographs, and requesting practical items such as a baseball cap rather than more bullion cubes. William also describes daily military life, including visits to the city and hospital, time at the rifle range, language classes, movies, and interactions with officers such as General D. and Dr. Reynolds.
