Dear Mom, Dad, & Marie,
Here I am again, just about a week since I wrote you last. Do you think I am improving? Well today I had the morning off, so I thought I would drop you a few lines. So here goes.
The other day I thought I had located Carroll Lamb. But when I finally ran this Lamb down, it was not he. Could you let me know what kind of outfit he is in and its number? Maybe one of these days I will run across him if you do.
This past Wednesday we had Mass and will continue to have it, each Wednesday. It is held at night (7 pm). I was going to a show but decided it would do me more good to go to Church instead, so I went to Communion as well as Mass.
I was wondering if you could send me a few rolls of film, size 620. I can get a camera and can have film developed now. So if you can send the film I will send some pictures to you.
Last week on my day off, I did my washing and it was a job, but the clothes looked good and I figure it was worth the labor.
Guess that’s the news for this time so I will sign off by sending all my love to you all.
Your son,
Aubrey
