Dearest Gee. Well, honey, kinda hit the jackpot from you today. Got two v-mails from you dated Dec. 30+31st and two packages of funny papers. Got a nice card card from Mom too dated Nov. 30th. Only took a month and a half to find me. Not bad, huh. Sure was glad to hear fromContinue reading “Saturday, January 20, 1945”

Thursday, January 18, 1945

Somewhere in northern France. Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I didn’t get any letters today but I got a mighty fine package from you. It had mustard, two cans of chicken noodle soup, cookies, and candy in it. Thanks a lot kid. I’ve sure been hungry for something to piece on so now I’ve got it.Continue reading “Thursday, January 18, 1945”

Monday, January 15 & Tuesday, January 16, 1945

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I haven’t heard from you for a couple of days now, no letters from anyone today. Maybe tomorrow, huh! I’ve been dashing off letters like mad lately trying to get this new address to them. Haven’t written Coe or Claude + Mildred yet but figured they would find out right awayContinue reading “Monday, January 15 & Tuesday, January 16, 1945”

Saturday, January 13, 1945

Dearest Gee. Received your swell Dec. 22nd letter today and also one from Bernie. Can’t understand why my letters aren’t getting to you better. Of course, I can’t write every day but you should be getting more than you are. Right now I’m trying to get off the letters to people who don’t have theContinue reading “Saturday, January 13, 1945”

Friday, January 12, 1945

Dearest Gee. Got two very fine letters from you yesterday dated Dec. 17 and 25th. Also got one from Erv. You sure did get a lot of nice things for Christmas, didn’t you, honey? I’m glad for you. The two jokes you sent were both good and I read them to the fellows. They gotContinue reading “Friday, January 12, 1945”

Tuesday, January 9, 1945

Dearest Gee. This is a fine time to be writing letters — it being two-thirty in the morning, but I have a few more hours to sweat out so can’t think of a better way to put them in than writing my honey. Haven’t heard from anyone now for the past three days, or sinceContinue reading “Tuesday, January 9, 1945”

Sunday, January 7, 1945

Dearest Gee. Got your Dec. 20 v-mail letter today, kid. Sure was glad to get it too. The nice long letter you mentioned as having written that morning hasn’t shown its face yet. Maybe tomorrow. I’m enclosing some more pictures of the various sections. The one with Captain Heck on the right side of theContinue reading “Sunday, January 7, 1945”

Saturday, January 6, 1945

Dearest Gee. Honey, I got your Dec 10th letter yesterday. The mail seems to be running backwards as I’ve already got your Dec. 19th one. Just as long as I get them tho that is the main thing. If I don’t get some air-mail envelopes tomorrow these letters will have to have a free onContinue reading “Saturday, January 6, 1945”

Thursday, January 4, 1945

Somewhere in northern France Dearest Gee. Well, honey, after I had written your letter yesterday we had our first mail call and I collected four, one of them being your Dec. 19th jobby. Sho was glad to get it too. Also got a letter from Mildred C, and one from Coe, and a card fromContinue reading “Thursday, January 4, 1945”

Wednesday, January 3, 1945

Dearest Gee. Happy New Year, and all that sort of stuff. This is your first letter of the new year anyway. Suppose you noticed the new address on the envelope. I’ll include it at the end of this letter too. Might as well tell the gang about it because I don’t think I’ll have timeContinue reading “Wednesday, January 3, 1945”
