Tues. Night

Dearest Jane:

So honey it sure was good to talk to you last night. I miss you so much honey I hardly know what to do. Every day gets longer. I will be so glad when all this mess is over with and I will be with you always. You and Jr. and I. How is Jr. tonight? Is he behaving himself? Give him a spanking for me if he isn’t.

Honey have I told you I got a letter from mother? She said she wanted you to come up there if you wanted to. She also told me about getting your expenses paid. I will tell you all she said when I see you.

Honey. I am sorry I couldn’t come in Saturday but having to be back so soon I didn’t want to take a chance in missing connections and also I didn’t have the money to ride the bus. But I am sure I can come in this week. I don’t’ know about a three day pass. Will see about it.

I told you about having to lose 20 lbs. The Colonel seems determined for me to go to officer’s school.

Honey I don’t know any thing new to write. We are alert company tonight and I am afraid every minute we will have to fall out so I will close for the time. Will write again tomorrow night and will see you Saturday.

Lots of love to you and Jr.

Clive
