Dearest Dot,

            In your letter, you mentioned something about [me] watching those English girls. I’ll grant you, there are a lot of American boys marrying girls over here, but as yet, I haven’t seen any women that can compare with the girls from home. I don’t think you have to worry any.

            I was with Irv when I got your letter so he wanted to know what you had to say; so, as long as it was a short letter, I let him read it.

            There isn’t any news from here, so I’ll have to sign off for now.

                                                                        Lots of Love,
