Dearest Gee. I got your swell July 1 letter yesterday, kid. A five page number too! I was on my way to Oslo on pass so didn’t have time to answer it then.

Somewhere in France. Dearest Gee. This being Sunday and nine o’clock in the morning, I got a little time to start this letter any way.

Thursday, April 12, 1945 (second letter)

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I just wrote you a four pager awhile ago but that was before we had our mail call. I really collected from you.

Dearest Gee. Didn’t get any mail from you today. I got a v-mail from Coe tho so I wasn’t entirely left out. I hope I hear from you tomorrow tho.

Dearest Gee. I’m going to try and write you a letter but I’ve got visitors and you know how that goes. Write a line and then stop and shoot the bull for an hour.
