My darling Fran:

            I didn’t get to write you last night so I’m writing you from the office this morning. You will get it the same time because our mail doesn’t go out until 11 o’clock each morning. Last night we went out to M.G. and seen a movie, I had seen it before but nevertheless it was something to do. The movie was the “Dolly Sisters”. After the movies we went up to the officers home and had a couple bottles of beer. There were a couple of British officers, the chief of police and his asst., M.G., and ourselves so we just sat around shooting the bull. We didn’t get home until after 11 o’clock so I was rather tired and went right to bed. Yesterday morning Mike and myself went out to Wada to pick up more supplies, we are really getting stocked up because goodness knows what the British will give us after Battalion moves out. In the afternoon I didn’t do a thing besides get my watch fixed, it was running fast, and get a hair cut so honey that just about takes in everything for yesterday. They are doing very well with the house and expect to have it finished by June 10th. They are planting palms and scrubs all around the yard so when they finish it should be very pretty. I still prefer to be living in any old shack back home as long as my darling and I could be together. Honey I miss you terribly and it seems to be getting worse all the time, I mean lonelier but as we always say there’s nothing we can do so will have to be patient and sweat it out. Darling I love you more than anything in the world and always will. I don’t want another soul in this world but “Frances” so darling continue being a good girl and I’ll continue being a good boy. Haven’t had any mail recently but it’s not your fault because I know my darling is writing every day. Honey give my regards to your mother and dad, George and Blanch, and all our friends. Tell them all to write and I promise I’ll answer.

 

With all my love,

Your honey forever.

 

P.S.

            If you have any more pictures I’d love them. Take a picture of Geo. & Blanch also one of the house they bought and send them.
