    "...Possibly a he was..." Suspect most of it is about the lack of education for most people at the time. Note the spelling of 'machine', improper capitalization, etc. Most people at the time didn't get past about Grade 8, if that far.
    141st Infantry was the 1st Texas Inf. You seen this? https://history.army.mil/html/forces...inf/0141in.htm
    Could be that 'cons' is his own contraction of the word 'constant' too. Artillery being like that.
    Spelling and Grammar count!
