Dearest Gee. Lordy, honey, I sure collected the mail in yesterday.

Dearest Gee. No letter from you yesterday or today again, so far. Maybe I’ll get one later on tonight. Well, according to the radio announcers and newspapermen, the war was supposed to be over today, wasn’t it? I haven’t noticed it slackening up any around here. The news does sound better day by day butContinue reading “Friday, September 15, 1944”
