Dearest Gee. Thought for sure Christmas had come early today. Man, did I ever get the stuff! That sure is a swell picture of you. Is that the one you were referring to as to using a coupon for it? And was that the surprise you were talking about in your v-mail of the 26th?Continue reading “Saturday, May 13, 1944”

Dearest Gee. Sure have been collecting the mail the last few days but haven’t been answering any.

Dearest Gee. Not much doing this afternoon so I’ll try and turn in the daily report. Since I wrote last night, I’ve acquired a few air mail envelopes from Moreno so I can rip a few of these off now. Read over your air mails of yesterday again. Maybe I can answer a few ofContinue reading “Sunday, May 7, 1944”

Dearest Gee. Got those two juicy airmails of the 17th and 25th today. Got a nice long typewritten jobby from Sis too. Sure am tired tonight. Went through a few maneuvers today.

Dearest Gee. Got your April 14 morale builder the other day. We’ve been pretty busy so I haven’t had much time to write. Can’t understand those two week rest periods in your receiving letters. Sometimes it’s a couple days or so before I write but not two weeks. Got a nice long letter from HilahContinue reading “Sunday, April 30, 1944”
