Letters from Stephen W. Winter to his parents, October - November 1967

This set of 9 letters was written between October 12 and November 29 of 1967. Stephen finally recieved word from the Marine Corps as a Captain Golden has informed Stephen that he is getting an "Undesirable Discharge". In late October, Stephen also recieved the guitar he ordered and expresses that playing it has helped improve his "oppressive moods of anxiety" he sometimes has. Stephen knows he has a board meeting in late November and wants to have a career plan ready for the meeting, but is still preparing himself to recieve another year delay before the next meeting. On November 29, Stephen writes to his parents that he is very happy and thankful that the M.R.(Member and Representative) Board meeting went well as they only delayed his next meeting by 3 months. In March he'll revisit the board and expects a date of release from prison.
