Thursday, November 9, 1944

Dearest Gee. Didn’t get any letters from you yesterday but I got a v from Mae, a letter from Erv and a swell can of mixed nuts from Rita and Mrs. Fleshner. Will you thank them for me — I pulled the same deal as once before — destroyed the box with the address onContinue reading “Thursday, November 9, 1944”

Monday, November 6, 1944

Dearest Gee. Got your Sept. 30 air mail and Oct. 15th and one from Mom of Oct. 2. Then on top of that I got another package from you. Was a Christmas package too. It had a can of your very good divinity in it, jar of welcome coffee, peanuts, comb, stiptic [styptic] pencil, funniesContinue reading “Monday, November 6, 1944”

Wednesday, November 1, 1944

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I got your Oct. 19th, and 20th letters today. Also got a nice long one from Mom dated the 20th. We’ve been pretty busy lately so I haven’t had a chance to write. I got a chance to use this typewriter so you can at least half way read this one.Continue reading “Wednesday, November 1, 1944”

Thursday, September 28, 1944

Dearest Gee. Santa Claus arrived early this year. I got four packages from you. Candy bars, marshmallows, and peanuts. I don’t know who had the most fun, the fellows with me, or me. They got just as excited as if they belonged to them. We sure do thank you, kid. Also got a letter fromContinue reading “Thursday, September 28, 1944”

Tuesday, September 26, 1944

Dearest Gee. Well, I finally got the films today. Sho thank you. Now I can take “boo coo” [beaucoup] pictures. Also got three packages of funny papers and two of funny books and I thank you for those too. The guys sure go for them in a big way. I sure get a kick outContinue reading “Tuesday, September 26, 1944”

Saturday, September 23, 1944

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, the only mail I got yesterday was your cute birthday card. Seems as tho your mail is being delivered like mine is you you. Namely, everyone’s else gets here first. I’ve already got Es’s and Bernadine’s cards a few days back. I’ll be glad when I can tell you what IContinue reading “Saturday, September 23, 1944”

Monday, September 18, 1944

Dearest Gee. Didn’t get any mail today or yesterday (so far today anyway). It sure makes it tough to write a letter. Douglass brought me my camera so now I can take the other four pictures if it stops this liquid sunshine long enough. I still haven’t received the films you sent. Hope they don’tContinue reading “Monday, September 18, 1944”

Wednesday, September 13, 1944

Dearest Gee. Well, I scrounged a little paper and some envelopes and I have the stamps you so kindly sent so I’ll try a regular letter. Got your swell card and money order for five fish yesterday. Sho thank you. Am I to understand Joannie put some in on it too? That wasn’t quite clear.Continue reading “Wednesday, September 13, 1944”

Tuesday, September 12, 1944

Dearest Gee. I’ll have to answer all your letters kinda piecemeal since this writing paper is so limited in length. I got three more letters yesterday, two nice ones from you and one from Mom. I got out my forty letters yesterday and reread them. Got a kick out of the bridge club letter. EspeciallyContinue reading “Tuesday, September 12, 1944”

Sunday, August 6, 1944

Dearest Gee. Received your letter with the address book in it today. I didn’t realize how much good that thing was until I lost mine. Thanks for going to all the trouble. Not that I can ever write to all the people whose address you put in, but it’s nice to know when all theContinue reading “Sunday, August 6, 1944”
