Dear Mom and Pops,

Just thought I would drop you a few lines. I’ll be home for sure this coming weekend. I’ve got Monday off as you already know. I have to take my 2^nd class examination on Friday the 5^th so I’ll probably get Friday afternoon off too, I’m not sure though.

Last week I bought a pretty nice camera off a pilot I knew, so I went out and took a few pictures Sunday afternoon. We just got paid today so I’m going uptown tonight and see if I can get a pair of G.T. pants. There’s supposed to be a plane that sells them cheaper than Small Stars, so I’m going to look into it.

Well I guess I’d better close these few line for now. See you soon.

All my love

Alfred
