Dearest darling Wife,

            Hello darling, here is a few more lines to you. I’ll bet you sure do get tired of reading the same letters over and over, but there isn’t much that I can say that is different from one time to the next. Gosh I sure wish I could get some mail from you. It has been so darn long since I heard from you darling. I sure ought to get several letters too when I do get some mail. Boy when I do get home honey I will have so much to tell that it will take me days to tell all that I have seen and done in my past six months.

            I am feeling fine now darling and getting along swell. I have plenty of everything now dear. Please don’t worry about me now darling cause you know I am alright and getting along swell. I sure hope you are alright and everything is going alright. Please take good care of yourself darling.

            I love you so awful, awful much and you know I always will darling. You are so perfect and so darn precious darling. It will be so darn swell when we can be together again and really start living our life. I know God will answer our prayers and bring us together as soon as possible darling.

            Well Honey I guess I had better close for this time and I’ll write as soon as possible now darling. I’ll be looking for your sweet letters now darling. Tell everyone hello for me dear.

            Loads and loads of love to you darling.
