Dear Sweet.
Gee I love you more and more every day and I want you more than any-thing. I think this army is driving me nuts because to night [sic] I went and saw a cowboy picture and if I was sane I probably wouldn’t have gone. You see darling how much I need you and I still think I love you the most. Yve about those pajamas I think I can get you
[Page 2]
out of most anything and if [illegible deletion] its [sic] going to be that hard to get off you I’ll take them pajamas and hide them some where [sic], where you won’t be able to find them abut I still think they’d look cute on you. Even that pink birthday suit look good on you darling. I love you so much and these month go so slow it seems that I’ll never get out. Well darling nothing new has happened around here so ther’s not much to write
[Page 3]
about. I love you so darn much it terrible. Gee darling I miss you so very much. I got to stop now but I’ll write tomorrow and let you know whats [sic] new. I’ll love you always. As Ever.
