I just came back from an inspection and in my dress blues right now. My job is ok at times, but will be able to pull thru it .... I could tell you what I wanted, but I can't as you probably know." "Honey, I got my first letter yesterday. It was from Eddie Drinkwater. He said his mother called up mother and told her that I was safe. I can't understand why my mail hasn't come yet, because I wrote home a couple days before I met him and he has already an answer. The ice was about gone at that time he said. There wasn't any other news I guess. I would like to be back there with him. It was a much better place, and it was always fun talking about old times." "Darling, I am anxious to know how you are and what is going on. I miss you so very much honey and hope this will not last long so I can get back to you. I hope you will write often and send it the quickest. Oh! yes, I saw a British USO show last night. It wasn't bad at all. Well darling, will close for now and I love you very very much. Lots of love darling, Hubby"). Money back guaranteed if stamp(s) and/or cover(s) is/are not to your satisfaction.
