Dearest Gee. Haven’t had any letters now for a couple of days but guess I’d better scribble off a line anyway. Just got through with a delicious dinner. We barbecued a couple chickens (got ‘em legally too) and had mashed potatoes and corn. I ain’t a bit hungry right now, burp. Took about two hoursContinue reading “Sunday, November 12, 1944”

Dearest Gee. Got your two morale builders today, although I think one was a morale “breaker downer.” The one with all the legs showing. What was you trying to do, kid? Whatever it was, you succeeded. The pictures were all good tho but I’m sweating out some 4F, or maybe a regular United States soldier,Continue reading “Wednesday, October 18, 1944”
