Yank Archive curator's comments:
According to other sources, Pvt. Bryan was accused of being involved in running a "reefer flat" in New York. Apparently this is something like a crack house for cannabis. Ursula Parrott was a very successful romance writer. Several of her books were made into movies. She helped Pvt. Bryan escape from the stockade in Miami where he was being held for going AWOL. I guess she thought she was saving Private Bryan.
About newsbites: Each issue of Yank had dozens of short reports on events from the homefront as well as the battlefront. They provide a fascinating glimpse into life during the war.
