Yve darling,
I’m lonesome. Won’t you please come and cheer me up a little. Its [sic] been raining all day to-day [sic] and it make [sic] me feel this way. Darling I’ll be so glad when we’re to gether [sic] again I’m so darn sick of living alone. Well darling I got a letter to-day [sic] where you say you still want to come over if you can but after you read that little article I sent you from the stars & stripes [sic] you’ll know there’s no hope of it. But darling I don’t think I’ll be over here [illegible] more years because if I am I’ll go over the hill
[Page 2]
and ocean too. I got to go on guard in a few minutes so I won’t be able to write very much except I love you so darn much darling it [sic] terrible. If you ever think that I don’t miss you as much as you miss me you got another think [sic] coming. I miss you more than you’ll ever know. But I’m so glad we we’re [sic] married before I came over seas [sic]. Well darling I got to go now so I’ll write to morrow [sic] if they give me any time off. Till [sic] then I love you more than anything in the world. I love you I love you I love you As Ever,
Howard
