Thursday, September 13, 1945

Dearest Gee. Thanks, honey, for that fancy birthday card. I got it today with the nice long letter inside. Didn’t get any mail yesterday so I didn’t do any writing. I wasn’t in much of a mood to do any writing anyway after that shindig at the club. One of the guys here in theContinue reading “Thursday, September 13, 1945”

Saturday, August 25, 1945

Dearest Gee. So nuthin’ today, kid. Can’t understand this mail situation. Sure is ragged. Well, how’s everything between the home front and the returning veterans? Has things got anyways near back to normal in the Bruns’ and Barber’s households? Suppose Francy and my Dad are both still nursing a little hangover. Maybe it’s a goodContinue reading “Saturday, August 25, 1945”

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I got two letters from you yesterday and one today. Sho like that. Yesterday’s letters were dated July 22 and 24 (anniversary day) and today’s was 26. Not bad time is it?

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.

Dearest Gee. Got three swell letters from you today, kid, and three from Mom. Sure was glad to get them too as they were the first I’ve received that were written after this war was over.

Wednesday, May 9, 1945

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, it looks like one of the days of all days arrived anyway, didn’t it? I sure am thankful to have pulled through this far at least without too much injury.

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, this certainly was a surprise to get this stationary. I hope you haven’t impinged on any copyrights or patents.

The fellowsContinue reading “Tuesday, April 17, 1945”
