Sun. July 1

Dear Mom and Dad,

There’s nothing new to say, but I will write a short line to say I am fine. There’s still no mail. I sure have lost all track of what’s going on at home.

I’m still waiting for a plane to Frisco. I should leave sometime this week. It sure is hard to sit around waiting to come home.

This laying around has certainly bleached me out, and it has made me soft. I was so tan and hard as a rock when I cam off the front lines. I felt healthier and stronger than I ever felt in my life while I was up there.

Well, I will close for now for lack of news.

See you soon.

Love to all,

Jack
