Dear Mom;

I guess this won’t be like those nice long letters I used to send but it will at least be that letter you were waiting for so long. I can at least tell you that I’m in India someplace. Most of our mail is finally catching up to us and it certainly is good to be able to read about events back home. I don’t know whether the Woonsocket call will ever catch up with me or not. If you can I would like you to cut the picture out of it + send it in a letter. Did Mrs. Manning call up to say she had seen the article + picture. What did the article about Meredith say. I don’t hold any hard feelings about your opinion of Muriel. However I feel everything will turn out for the best as it always has. When you write in the future try + use V mail as it is faster. If possible get me several packages of it to send it as the paper over here is of cheap quality. Please write as often + the same as before but don’t try to find where I’m located.

Lovingly. Your son

Glenn
