Thursday, October 12, 1944

Dearest Gee. Got four wonderful letters from you today. Your Sept. 12, 14, 15, and 17 air-mails. Also got a letter from Mom and Mildred C, and a v-mail from Florence so I really had a field day. If that’s the way the Ouija board feels about things, you’d better throw it away. I sureContinue reading “Thursday, October 12, 1944”

Tuesday, October 10, 1944

Dearest Gee. No mail yet. I’m sweating out some of those batches of cookies you say are on the way. Hope my mail is getting through to you a little better by this time. I’ve been trying to write almost every day but of course sometimes I just can’t. I got out of my helmetContinue reading “Tuesday, October 10, 1944”

Saturday, October 7, 1944

Dearest Gee. Got your Sept. 10 air mail and your Sept 23 v-mail last night. Also got a v-mail from Coe dated Sept 20th. Your air mail was a nice long one that I sure enjoyed. Hope they have hooked that maniac running around Mattoon by now. He might take a notion to go visitingContinue reading “Saturday, October 7, 1944”

Wednesday, September 20, 1944

Dearest Gee. Feel better now. Just received your Sept. 4 and Aug. 29 letters and Joannie’s swell card note and money order. Also got a nice long letter from Mom of Sept. 4. I want to write Joannie my thanks but don’t know whether I’ll have time or not tonight as it’s getting dark. It’sContinue reading “Wednesday, September 20, 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”

Monday, September 11, 1944

Dearest Gee. Got four more letters last night. An air mail of the 25th from you and a v-mail of the 22nd. Also got a v-mail from Mom and a letter from Harry. I’m sorry I asked you for any money now, kid, as I couldn’t spend it yet tho. Things seem to be highContinue reading “Monday, September 11, 1944”

Sunday, September 10, 1944

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, they finally got us some mail yesterday and I got thirty eight letters, a swell box from Mom, and this v-mail from Mildred, and five packages of funny books and funnies from you. It was a grand day, believe me. The letters were from everyone. I got birthday cards from CoeContinue reading “Sunday, September 10, 1944”
