 | Camp Edwards, Mass 5 April 45 My Darling Sweetheart & Mama! Have so much to write about & hardly know where to start – but first I Love You Peg Darling – and am so darn proud of you that I’m about to bust! Was really happy to get the news of our Son’t arrival – called as soon as I got here – it only took 15 minutes to get the call thru- Am I happy? It’s hardly a word to use - everything Honey is better than even my ondest dream – Am going to call you tonight – but only hope that if you’re not ablt to get to the phone you don’t try – cause I surely don’t want anything to happen to you! Am still so nervous & excited that I can hardly write – called Ma after I talked to Billy – and she was pretty excited – But our Boy was the thing - Have always wanted to it to be a boy - but didn’t get my ho[es too hight as I always figured it would be just as hard to have a boy a a girl. I Love You Honey!

 | Will be leaving here soon for some hospital near home – have had quite a bit of patience till now – it’s starting to get me – you see there’s a 30 day furlough awaiting me somewhere here in the States! And I sure do want to get moving – that wait in England was a lilly – I should have been home the 1st of March – we were to be evacuated by air – but it had to be foggy – and after a week’s wait they called it off – it was hellish – every minute just sitting and waiting for that call – don’t believe I was ever disappointed in my life – am feeling good – everything is fine – the only thing I need is a good Discharge (Army Discharge! ahem!) but believe it’s a little too much to hope for – have played it about as far as it’s worth – maybe I’ll get a limited assignment somewhere in the states – guess being hospitalized 5 months is spoiling me - I don’t believe I’ll be able to go back to full duty – am really lazy – I Love You Peg Darling! My Lef will be O.K. someday I hope – there isn’t much they can do for it – am sweating out another little operating though as there’s a little piece |
 | of steel still left – and they may go a digging for it – hope not as I’ve had all the cutting I care to have! I Love You Honey (Actual size sketch of scars) That’s about what they look like! Well Peg Darling kiss our son for me – will have to sign off for tonight (Morning!) I Love you My Darling! Love and Kisses to Both of You! Daddy (It’s authorized now) Don’t write to this joint as I’ll only be here shortly! |
