Dearest Gee. Haven’t heard from anyone for two days now. Maybe I’ll catch a couple tonight. Didn’t write any letters last night or night before but thought I’d better rip a piece of one off tonight. Am writing this in the afternoon as we’re having some prize fights tonight that I want to go see.Continue reading “Thursday, August 3, 1944”

Thursday, July 27, 1944
Dearest Gee. Sure got a lot of writing to do now. Got your July 8, 9, 12th, 14th, 15th, and 20th airmails. Also got a long one from Sis dated the 17th. She sent me a bunch of jokes that are really good. You’ve said so much now, I don’t know where to start. I’mContinue reading “Thursday, July 27, 1944”
Friday, July 21, 1944
Dearest Gee. Received your July 10 v-mail today. That’s not bad time for v-mail. So you romped again on the shoes. I hope you at least bought some you can wear and not have to just sit and look at them. From all these good rumors floating around about Hitler about ready to give up,Continue reading “Friday, July 21, 1944”
Wednesday, July 19, 1944
Dearest Gee. Received your June 29 letter today and that isn’t such good time. You had remarked in your letter on how fast my letter had got there. Sometimes they just happen to hit the right connections. I was afraid I’d have trouble with Chick on that deal. As far as I’m concerned, I know!Continue reading “Wednesday, July 19, 1944”

Dearest Gee. Say, this is certainly some very fancy stationary. When you said you were having some made I didn’t know you were going to have the whole thing put on. Saves a lot of time this way. Sho do thank you a lot, kid. The only trouble is, I can’t get airmail stamps toContinue reading “Tuesday, July 18, 1944”
Wednesday, July 12, 1944
Dearest Gee. Received your June 31st letter yesterday. It was nice and newsy. It’s funny that Jenny would start wondering at a time like this about Joe, don’t you think? She is entirely too flighty. I don’t think she knows just what she does want. Just so you don’t get that way. I’m on C.Q.Continue reading “Wednesday, July 12, 1944”
Wednesday, June 28, 1944
Dearest Gee. No letters for two days now. Maybe I’ll get a flock tonight. After those six the other day, with four of them being from you, I guess there should be a slump. After reading the article on Wally Saathoff that was in the paper, there wasn’t much new I told you about him.Continue reading “Wednesday, June 28, 1944”
Friday, June 23, 1944
[pages above are slightly out of order; the large middle page should appear between these two bottom pages] Dearest Gee. I wrote you yesterday before we had our mail call so I didn’t get to answer your questions then. Got your June 12 airmail, one from Mom, and one from Hilah. Your letter had theContinue reading “Friday, June 23, 1944”
Thursday, June 22, 1944
Dearest Gee. Certainly have been lagging behind on my letter writing. Got your nice airmail of the 29th, a v-mail from Harry, one from Coe, and one from Erv, and four packages of funnies from you, and last but not least the other packages you sent containing writing paper (which I needed bad) the pipeContinue reading “Thursday, June 22, 1944”
Sunday, June 18, 1944
Dearest Gee. Well, you should be getting a package within the next year or two as I mailed one this morning. You divide, or rather give, Mom some of the things – and you’ll know what I mean when you get the box. I don’t know what you like for sure so take your pick.Continue reading “Sunday, June 18, 1944”
