Hello darling,
Gee darling I don’t know what we can get Paslins + Warren [?], I wish I could see you for just a little while. You seem so close yet you [are] so far away from me I don’t know what to tell you. I feel a little blue to-night [sic] as you probably know. you see I haven’t had any kind of a letter from home ever sinse [sic] oh about two weeks. [A]nyway and There must be something the matter. I love you so much darling and you don’t know what it means to me to have you love me
[Page 2]
I don’t think I even care to do anything if it wasn’t that you’d be loving me. Well darling I’ll mail my blood type slip to you in the morning. I got to go and get in at eight o’clock and then I have to see the chaplain and see if he got that form to morrow [sic] night. I love you and i always will. Good night darling and please keep on loving me. As Ever
Howard
