Dear Gram,

I was hopeing I could come over to Dayton to help in the harvest but from the looks of it I have to remain here for six weeks. I talked to my medical advisor and he told me that after the six weeks convalescent period I would either be discharged or put in limited service. Something like Jim Dorr has. They offer several different studies here and I signed up for agriculture, electrical work, and mechanical work. I am sending you a pamphlet on the different things we have here. When I start my lessons I will tell you my complete schedule. I will try to find out if you can stay at the guest house here in the Ft. and for how long and I’ll try to make reservations for you. You could even stay at Hagins and I could see you every evening and one on weekends from Sat. noon to Monday morning at 6AM. I’ll try and write you again real soon.

Much Love X

Mike
