All of these have correspondence on the back from the same GI to mostly the
same family member, and all but one are 1944 postmark with I think one being 1945.
They seem to tell the story of the soldiers experiences in camp and training during WW2.
The were pasted on an album page at one time it appears, but most can be read and
I think someone with expertise could remove the paper if they wanted.
Includes the following postcards:
Post headquarters, Ft. Meade, Maryland
Division Area 1 2 and 3 Camp Wolters, Texas
Lake Mineral Wells, Mineral Wells, Texas
La Salle Street Station, Chicago
Chuck Time on the Range (Texas)
Service Club, Camp Wolters, Texas (2)
Chapel, Camp Wolters, Texas
New Milling Sanatorium, Mineral Wells, Texas
Main points I can see from correspondence are:

59th (Infantry Training) Batallion 3rd Plattoon Camp Wolters on 3/30/44 postcard
First one to Caroline Nelson in Chicago

Reference to the 36 Div (36th ID?) from "pal" Cardova
Most addressed to wife Caroline Nelson in March 1943
Many from "daddy" to daughter Barbara.
One from Jan 27th, 1944
The latest dated PC, June 23rd 1944, appears to be from Fort Meade, Md. to his daughter
Barbara and laments that he might be going "away" for a long time to her.
