(or possibly the first of two letters on Tuesday, January 25, 1944) Dearest Gee. Say will you quit bawling me out on account of the letter proposition? You know I write to you first everytime, in fact, you get a letter whether anyone else does or not, but after I mail them from then onContinue reading “Monday, January 24, 1944”

Sunday, January 23, 1944
Dearest Gee. Well, kid, I went to town this afternoon. Tried to find a bed spread for you but I only found one place and he wanted twenty-two bucks for one you could get in the States for five. I thought I’d look around for another place open (it being Sunday) so I decided toContinue reading “Sunday, January 23, 1944”
Saturday, January 22, 1944
Dearest Gee. Well, kid, I had another pay day. Didn’t come any too soon either. In case you want to mark it down it was 29.60 lira. Better known as twenty-nine dollars and sixty cents. The first five went to a cameo for you. It isn’t in a setting but I suppose — rather I’mContinue reading “Saturday, January 22, 1944”
Wednesday, January 19, 1944
Somewhere in Italy Dearest Gee. At last I can say a little more than ordinary if they don’t change their minds and blot it all out. We have been in action against the Germans in the mountains of Italy. Came thru okay although there were a few times I was plenty scared. One day weContinue reading “Wednesday, January 19, 1944”
January 18, 1944 (second letter)
Dearest Gee. Well, here is the continuation of that v-mail I wrote you. Sometimes a guy just can’t get enough on one of those to tell you everything you want to. I got your four packages of precious Chesterfields too. Also received a swell card from Claude and Mildred, one from Jenny + Joe [Chick],Continue reading “January 18, 1944 (second letter)”
Tuesday, January 18, 1944
Dearest Gee. Well, honey. I’ve been spending all morning on my Christmas packages. Lord, did I ever get a flock of them. I received six cans, five being full of candy, one of Prince Albert, funny books, and all of your swell presents. Sure am proud of that pipe, kid, it’s a dandy. I wonderedContinue reading “Tuesday, January 18, 1944”
Friday, January 14, 1944
Dearest Gee. Got quite a bit of mail again today. Got your two Dec. 14 ones and one dated Dec. 20 with the pictures of that new coat. Front and back views too. Right away everybody wanted to know how much it costs and all about it. I didn’t know whether they were talking aboutContinue reading “Friday, January 14, 1944”
Thursday, January 13, 1944
Dearest Gee. I’m losing track of the dates, kid. I thought yesterday was the thirteenth and now somebody tells me differently. Oh well, I’ve got nothing but time anyway. Got three more letters last night. One from you dated Nov. 30 with the newspaper page in it, thanks; one from Rudy and Carrie — aContinue reading “Thursday, January 13, 1944”
Wednesday, January 12, 1944
Dearest Gee. Sho’ did hit the jackpot this time. Got eight letters this morning. Three from you, three from Mom (Dec. 11, 20, 25), one from Sis, Dec. 25, and one from Chick of Dec. 9. Yours were two v-mails of 22, 24 Dec. and an airmail of Dec. 16. My morale went up fiftyContinue reading “Wednesday, January 12, 1944”
Wednesday, January 12, 1944
Dearest Gee. Got your Dec. 12 jobby today. The one with the fancy Christmas stationary. Mighty fine writing paper there, kid. Where did you win it? Wish I could answer a few of your questions but of course I can’t. You needn’t worry about the dates as I’ll have those. I got a letter fromContinue reading “Wednesday, January 12, 1944”
