March 22^nd

Dear Marge,

            Here’s a note before I go to bed tonight. I’m not going to write very much but just enough so you will know I’m still thinking about you. I just came back from a movie and had a letter waiting for me from you. In your letter you told me you had seen “Hollywood Canteen”, well that’s what I saw tonight. It was the first show I’d seen in about 4 months. I liked it.

Marge, send me a watch band. I broke the one I had and you can’t get any over here. Just put it in one of your letters and it will get here. All I want is a leather band about ½ inch wide.

News is scarce around here. In fact I don’t know any. Well you know that by now.

Honey this isn’t much more than a note but you will know I’m thinking about you. I hope you can read this cause I’m just scribbling. By the way I lost my pen somewhere around here. If you ever see one send it over. This one I borrowed and I don’t like it.

Well Marge I’m going to sign off for now. I’ll write you a big letter real soon. Anyway this will let you know I’m OK and still love you more than anything in the old world. I’m going to bed now so I’ll send you all my love. Honey I miss you more every day I’m away from you. Don’t forget to write even if you don’t hear from me. Maybe if we ever stay in one place long enough I’ll catch up on my letter writing. I doubt it though.

I’ll tell you again I love you and someday real soon, I hope, I’ll prove to you how much. I love you and miss you.

                                                            Always yours,

                                                                        Ralph

I love you, Marge
