Dearest Dottie,

Hello honey. How are you feeling? I sure hope you feel better than I do. I am OK. But I sure have a very bad cold. Dottie, I haven’t had a letter from you in some time now. I wonder if you have forgotten me, have you?

Dottie I don’t know how the weather is in Troy. But I tell you it sure is cold here in Germany.

Honey, yes I am in Germany and boy is it bad too. But some one has got to do this job. I think you will agree with me.

Dottie I am sleeping in a fox hole now. But that is the best place I can find to live over hear.

Honey, tell your mother that I said hello and to take good care of you. Ha Ha.

Dottie there is not any news to tell you about. O yes, if you can send me a fountain pen I will send you the money for it at once.

Dottie I will close now with all my love for you and your mother.

Yours for ever

PFC Rhandy Osteen
