Dear Yvette,
I guess I’m having my troubles. I went to the chaplain to-night [sic] and no form. You see all the mail for chaplain Monahan [?] was supposed to be sent to Chaplain Teller but it seems that chaplain Monahan[‘s] assist. forwarded all the mail to chaplain [M]onahan so as soon as he gets it he’s going to send it back here to chaplain
[Page 2]
Teller. I’m telling you its [sic] a mixed up mess. Besides Chaplain sent a night letter to chaplain Monahan telling him to rush that form because we didn’t have much time. I’ve done the best I can darling.I can’t help it if about every chaplain I see gets shipped out some place. I told you quite a while ago that it was hard to see the same chaplain twice. Well darling I feel sorry for you having to take a double dose of blood test if I’d of [sic] known
[Page 3]
that I would of [sic] taken one for you. You know I just love to have some one [sic] jab me in the arm. Honest darling I’m worried about this form that[‘s] supposed to be here. Darling I love you did I ever tell you that before? I think you’r[e] wonderful and I wish I could see you for a little while. [E]verything seems so darn confusing down here. I don’t know what to do. I got to go now but I want you to know I love you with all of me. Love
Howard
