Dearest Gee. Gosh, honey, I got three more letters from you today and one from Claudie. Really am hitting them now. The letters were your Jan. 7th, 8th, and 14th so they were late ones. I was just checking up on the letters I got from you in December. I find it was seventeen soContinue reading “Saturday, January 27, 1945”

Monday, January 22, 1945

Dearest Gee. No mail today again. Last night I answered Mom’s card but I just can’t find anything to write about. I’m heating a little water right now and getting ready to wash and shave. Getting so I shave almost every three days now. Use to be once a week whether I needed it orContinue reading “Monday, January 22, 1945”

Somewhere in northern France. Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I didn’t get any letters today but I got a mighty fine package from you. It had mustard, two cans of chicken noodle soup, cookies, and candy in it. Thanks a lot kid. I’ve sure been hungry for something to piece on so now I’ve got it.Continue reading “Thursday, January 18, 1945”

Monday, January 15 & Tuesday, January 16, 1945

Dearest Gee. Well, honey, I haven’t heard from you for a couple of days now, no letters from anyone today. Maybe tomorrow, huh! I’ve been dashing off letters like mad lately trying to get this new address to them. Haven’t written Coe or Claude + Mildred yet but figured they would find out right awayContinue reading “Monday, January 15 & Tuesday, January 16, 1945”

Saturday, January 13, 1945

Dearest Gee. Received your swell Dec. 22nd letter today and also one from Bernie. Can’t understand why my letters aren’t getting to you better. Of course, I can’t write every day but you should be getting more than you are. Right now I’m trying to get off the letters to people who don’t have theContinue reading “Saturday, January 13, 1945”

Sunday, January 7, 1945

Dearest Gee. Got your Dec. 20 v-mail letter today, kid. Sure was glad to get it too. The nice long letter you mentioned as having written that morning hasn’t shown its face yet. Maybe tomorrow. I’m enclosing some more pictures of the various sections. The one with Captain Heck on the right side of theContinue reading “Sunday, January 7, 1945”

Saturday, December 23, 1944

Dearest Gee. Well, what do you think of the picture? Do you think you can have it made bigger, and more copies made from it? They only allowed us one picture apiece and I imagine Mom + Dad would like one. The names of the fellows are as follows; reading left to right, first row:Continue reading “Saturday, December 23, 1944”

Friday, December 22, 1944

Dearest Gee. Got your Dec. 7th jobby today and one from Mom and Carrie of Dec. 8th. Sure was glad to get them and especially yours. We must both be in the same fix, namely not getting one another’s mail. Haven’t received your package yet either. What are they trying to do to us, kid,Continue reading “Friday, December 22, 1944”

Dearest Gee. Well, kid, I did a little better on the mail today. Got your swell letter of Dec. 6 written on that fancy Christmas stationary. Also got one from Mom of Dec. 5, and a three pager from Erv. Got a nice card from Wally’s sister. She wrote a note on the back ofContinue reading “Wednesday, December 20, 1944”
