 | Ward B-2 Winters Gen H 9 April 45 6PM C.S.T. My Darling Peggy I sure missed the boat when it came to getting a Hosp near home – but that’s the Army for you – there’s nothing like making a person unhappy! And what a mess this is – we came in early this morning & I haven’t even seen a sign of a Doctor around here – there isn’t even a nurse – all they did was say there’s a bed – hop to it – It seems to me that they should be aware of the fact that we’ve just come from overseas & are all but killing ourselves wondering how & when we’ll get home! It beats me – up until now everything has been so fine -- and here where you’re supposed to really be treated there isn’t a damn thing done! From what the other patients here say we’ll get a leave within a week or ten days – but not 30 days only 21 – but then you can wire for an extension – well the best I can do is wait & see what happens tomorrow. Maybe this is a Hospital!! Hope that you & Jackie are feeling well – you certainly sounded |
 | good this afternoon – almost have an urge to call again tonight – I could listen to you all Day & night – I Love You So Much Honey! Am really anxious to see our Son. I’ll bet he’s quite a fellow – I do know he has the swellest mother in the world! Hope that we’ll be able to take him to Florence with us – but am almost afraid that he’s a bit young to be running around the Country side – so I believe Florence will have to come to him! Hope you wait ‘till I get home before you have him Babtized – and hae you thought about who’ll be his God-Parents? I was thinking of Uncle Billy & Aunt Mary – but that is entirely up to you! I Love You Mom!! Had a nice trip here – went by way of Canada – we were parked in the Union Station Chicago almost all of Sunday Aft & they wouldn’t let us leave the train – and there was one kid only 11 blocks from home and I’ll be damn if they left hem get off – a bunch of U.S.O. commanders are running the Army back here – over where the shells are flying there aren’t many people talking what you can do & what you can’t!! I’m pretty disgusted tonight! I Love You Honey! |
 | Was pretty surprised to hear that Bert Minton was here – I went down to the Register's office right away & found that he’s home on furlough – his due back here the 12th – so I’ll probably see him then. He’s quite a guy – humorous as heck! Sell Darling take care of yourself & Jackie – I’ll try & see if I can get home soon – if someone wakes up around here - maybe they’ll come in and have a look at these headaches tomorrow! God Bless you Darling! I Love you Loads & am terrifically lonesome for you! Love & Kisses Your Hubby & Pa I Adore You! Today’s call $4.06 |
