Dearest Gee. Gosh, honey, I got three more letters from you today and one from Claudie. Really am hitting them now. The letters were your Jan. 7th, 8th, and 14th so they were late ones. I was just checking up on the letters I got from you in December. I find it was seventeen soContinue reading “Saturday, January 27, 1945”

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I got three nice packages today. Got yours, Joannie’s, and one from Es and Harry. Yours wasn’t the long-awaited one but it was okay anyway. It had candy, popcorn, and two packages of tobacco in it that were sure a big help. I’ve been smoking my pipe quite a bit lately.Continue reading “Friday, January 26, 1945”

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, happy days are here again as the mail is finally coming in. I sure have been sweating it out. I got your swell letters of Dec. 26, 27th, Jan 3, and 5th.

Monday, January 22, 1945

Dearest Gee. No mail today again. Last night I answered Mom’s card but I just can’t find anything to write about. I’m heating a little water right now and getting ready to wash and shave. Getting so I shave almost every three days now. Use to be once a week whether I needed it orContinue reading “Monday, January 22, 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.

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.

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”
