Collins said that the journal given to him by his uncle was the only gift he received at his going-away party.
Collins mentioned in his journal that there were two pictures on the wall in the living room. One was a picture of his grandfather, Phillip R. Collins, from the civil war, and the other was a picture of his father who was in the army during World War I. Collins said that he wanted his picture on the wall to show that he served his country also. He wrote “I wanted to tell [Mom] about wanting my picture on the wall, but I didn’t. Maybe when all of this is over I will tell her” (Myers, 1999, p. 5).
