Letter: Dear Mother & all, I received your letters, one yesterday and one today. I’m glad you liked the record and also glad you are getting a record player cause I can use that when I come home for good. About the girls writing, the one in Wilmington said she might write you some time. I’m sending her picture so send it back. I really enjoyed the poems and some of the guys said they did too. I haven’t received the box yet. Send Dot’s hospital address, things didn’t work out exactly right when I was home so I made up my mind she would have to write first and prove what she thought of me—well she didn’t write, Ha. I sent Leila a letter day before yesterday. Say Erma, how is things at school and is Cat’s tail still your boyfriend? Mother how is MaMa? Tell her hello for me and that she had better answer the letter I sent her. I think “Buddy”*meant he was a squad leader instead of a platoon leader or commander and that his company was divided into Platoons instead of Batoons. “Hee” “Hee” The lad had better brush up on his Military expressions. He and I had a good time in D.C. that night when I was on furlough and it didn’t cost me much, guess he did change a little after you told him off. As for Paul being promoted to Sec Class seaman, I think they are all Sec. Class seamen when they get out of boot camp. Well, that’s all for now. Love Joe.

I just bought this pen too and it’s not worth a dam[sic]. Everything is about the same except I sure miss the show, that write up was exaggerated quite a lot anyway, it was something that had to be done. We have a new captain and new officers and they seem to be ok. Anyway the change made a brake in the monotony and we have to get used to them. I am working pretty hard now and it is agreeing with me, anyway I am feeling fine. My foot is ok again in fact I can hardly tell it was broken. Say, who mails the Chimes [sic?] to me and is she good looking I hope? You can stop the N.Va. [Daily newspaper] because you tell me most of the news and it gets here too late, anyway. I seem to have lost those clippings but if I find them I’ll send them. I hear from Dot regularly. She is the one that gives adam [sic] anyway I guess. I saw James Poland and James Strossnider. Poland still talks about Charlotte & Pop. [or Pap] Pop is from Strasburg you know. He used to run around with Wallace & I. I got the Lutheran League box too in case I forgot. Can’t think of any more now will write again soon. Love Joe PS I hope you get those books. They are good. Ha.

Letter: Dear Mother and All, I’m sitting here trying to decide what to write. I’m aboard ship now and things aren’t so bad, no hard work. We had a show on the boat today and it was pretty good. I wasn’t in it. I haven’t found those clippings yet but will send them when I do. My foot is almost as good as new. I hardly know it was ever sore. Tell Charlotte that Jimmie is still true to her. He & Pop and I had a grand old time the last time I saw them. We had 3 cases of beer but they had so many buddies we hardly got any. Of course that makes you mad, Huh? I still [hear] from Dot regularly, and Margaret once and a while. I’m going to write Sue and Jayne W. before I hit the sack. Dot still has my school ring in case you wondered. She said when I was home she would keep it until I came & asked for it. If you want to break off with me, if you want this ring you have to come & and get it. In her last letter she said she would stand by me until I told her it was no use. Of course, I said she would stand by for a long time. It’s good to know one of my old girls really meant what she said. All of you write as often as you can and don’t write V Mail. I’ll write when I can.

Well, I have received all the boxes and pictures and they were sure swell-(both). I went to L.A. last weekend and a friend of mine took some [illegible] color pictures of my buddy and I. They won’t be ready for about five weeks, though, they have to go to New York to be developed. There is a rumor going around that we are getting a 15 day furlough with 2 days traveling time around Sept. 1. Don’t count on it, just hope for it. We are going out next week so don’t expect a letter for about a week and a half. The mail service is bad when we are in the field. Over. I get off of mess duty tomorrow. Boy has it been hell getting up at 4 and working till around 6:30. My buddy since Joe & Stine were transferred is Joe [Parvich or Parish]. Joe is from North Carolina and we are on mess duty together. He is a good looking guy about my size and I think he is 18 years old. We go out together all the time. Well last weekend we were ready to start home when a car pulled up and they ask us if we want a lift. We were going toward Long Beach talking to the lady in the car when we passed a convertible. They lady asked them to take us along. They said ok but we would have to come along home till about 7:30. We went along and met the family and then had a chicken supper. We picked up another girl at the house, a cousin of theirs. Two of the girls stopped at a dance in Long Beach and the other two brought us 86 miles back to Camp. We had a swell time, made a date for next weekend and got back to camp. Not bad luck. Well Love Joe.

The train trip certainly was interesting. I think Arizona was the most picturesque state, you would ride for miles in desert and suddenly come to miles of fertile irrigated soil. Well, we arrived safe and sound with no mishaps. It’s about 52 miles to Dago & about 60 miles to Los Angeles, the nearest town is 2 miles. Mother, I hope you got the second I made. I didn’t know what to say for once. I hope to get a promotion but still don’t know when. Tell all my girlfriends I’ll try to get them in Hollywood. Well, so long until next time.

Now don’t get excited it isn’t bad at all just one bone my 5th metarsal! I walk on it with a cast and walking iron. We were playing basketball between shows and my shoe came off. I stepped on it that ended my part of the game. I’m in a hospital near camp recovering and having a vacation. My picture will probably be in the paper with some crazy story and telling about the show. They are still showing and doing rather well without me. I sure hope they have lots of luck. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be as good as ever and probably better off. I will send the cards tomorrow. I didn’t get a chance before because I was with the show for 20 shows and have been here about a week. I’m near the camp and the boys come in often and I get mail about twice a week and the mail gets out about that often. I’ll have plenty of time to write now so you will probably hear more often for a while. Have to eat now will write.
