Bar-lo-duc

Dearest Dottie,

Hello sweetheart and how are you today? I am about the name and that is not too bad I will make it. Honey today is Sunday and it has been very quiet for me to. I am very blue and can’t help it any Ho. Ho.

Pattie tell mother I said hello and to take good care of herself. Gee I wish I could see both of you. It seem like we knew each other for a long long time to me. How do you feel about that? I am very found of you my dear.

Just wait until I get home then I will try to make you understand what I really mean. It is real hard for me to write. I can’t explain what I want to but that is the only way now.

Sweetheart I am at the Red Cross now. I have been sitting around hear trying to read a little. But I had to stop and write you. I like it better any way. There is not much I have to say but at least you know I am thinking of you tonight.

Honey I think of you each day that goes by. The only thing is you are far far away; someday you will be near though. Then I will make up for lost time.

Pattie my sweet I will sign off now with a big KISS and good night for you. Lost of love and sweet dreams.
