Dearest Darling,
This is Sunday and this place is quiet. I was wondering if you are as lonely as I am. One of the boys had a Camera, we took pictures all morning.
Louise they
tell us we are going to
I just thought what were said about Dick, if he had got the Infantry.
Well I don’t know what they have done to me but I have got to liking the army life. You don’t have any idea how bad I want to see you. I didn’t realize I loved you till I got here. I will be back home someday but there will be gray hair in my head. But for innocent Americans like you is why we suffer, and do our job well.
I have got six more weeks before our furlough. I hope to spend it with you. Answer this letter if you aren’t working too hard.
Love,
Ikey
P.S. My G.S haircut is growing more.
