October 3, 1942

 

My dearest Nick:

 

            How are you? Did you have a nice time at home? I hope all went well with you, dear, and that your family is well at home. Honey, are you in camp? It is such a lovely day today. I was down to the range and saw the forty m/m guns. Soon it will time for me to go home. Honey, I hope there is a letter for me written to me while you were at home for I’d like to have a letter from Penna. Honey, so far I’ve been busy today. Mr. Brown is leaving for the Marines and I’m typing a short note for he is gone. Honey, Mr. Kidwiler is out today too and we are having a lovely time working today.

 

            Darling, does this date October 3rd bring back memories to you? Remember January 3rd, dear, how cold we were in Coleman’s car and we still stayed out all night and even had breakfast together?  Honey, all was so lovely for us then. Since then, dear, we have seen each other quite often. Soon it will happen again, honey. It always does. Honey, I love you with all my heart. I miss you ever so much.

 

            Honey, we were together three weeks ago today or shall I say that I was on my way to see you? Honey, I wish I was doing the same today.

 

            I [am] going to the post-office after work for I [am] hoping and hoping. Honey, maybe you will call me tonight. How happily I’ll survive over the weekend.

 

            I’m going to take off a half day Thursday and go to Baltimore with Ann and do a little shopping. Gosh, honey, I need a pair of shoes to work in.

 

            The furlough may happen, honey. It is something I want and am looking forward to. Honey, how happily we will be again as we were in Ga. I love you, dear, with all my heart. Mr. Stahl is coming, dear, and I must close.

 

 

 

 

                                                                                                See you tonight, honey.
