Dear George,

Your letter of the 16th came last Thursday and we were glad to hear from you and to get those pictures. They are very good. Gene is going to send the rest of the ones you took on the trip to Jones Beach.

Hello Honey!

Please excuse me for not writing on cleaner paper, but it's too cold to go out on the porch for more. We sure are getting quite a cold spell now. This morning when I was coming home from church, my hat blew off twice.

Hello Honey!

How are you? I can hardly wait until I get your next letter.

Last night Mother and Eleanor went to see the Phillip Morris broadcast, and then went to "The Battle of The Sexes" and then they were invited to stay for the "Frank Fay Show". I got home way before them.

Dear George,

I'm glad you are again getting mail. We only got the one you mailed on the 14th today. I guess you did worry a bit over not getting any.

Sorry to hear that both your pals are laid up.

Dear George,


I am sorry to hear you didn't get any mail from home but you should have received at lease one from Dad. He wrote a day or two after you left for Ga. I Guess you have had some mail by now. Grace was up Sunday and she says she hadn't heard from you and hopes you are well.


Well Saturday was some rainy day and Dad left for to spend 4 days in the bungalow. He has the wall board for the new addition and thought he could put it on but he only got the walls covered over the weekend. He could not manage the big pieces for the ceiling above so he rolled in about 10 PM Sunday night.


We are all glad to hear of your new promotion and sure feel proud of the advancement you made since you are in the Army. That new insignia must give a little color to the uniform.

Hello Honey!

All week I've been waiting for a letter and was so disappointed. At last I was so worried I asked Mother to go up with me Saturday night to your house to see if your family had heard from you. I was imagining you in the hospital with Sal. It rained all that day and was still raining when we went up,

Dear George,

I'm sure you have everything under control, and I hope you are alright. I'm sure proud of you, before you know it they will make you a uniform out of chevrons and put sleeves in it. But I'm glad to hear you are officially permanent and a draftsman.
