Dearest Darling,

            I must write you and let you know what is going own. I am not in the Hay now. I am in a camp for a few days. I will be sent to a new outfit.

            Honey, I am fine and sure hope that you are. This old world sure is a big one after all. I wish that I was there so I could see you today. Dottie, how is your sweet mother today? Be sure and tell me. Honey, today is a very blue one for me. If I could just come home for a few days it would help.

            Listen Dottie do not write me any more until I send you my address. Honey, I do not know what it will be yet.

            But it won’t be my company any more. I will let you know soon as I get where I am going.

            My sweet, I must close now so be nice and sweet for me.

                                                                                    Love with kisses
