 | England Wednesday 17 Jan 45 My Darling Wife: Believe it or now but a couple of my Xmas packages arrived – and the most important one, yours, was one-- Honey the ring fits perfect – It’s beautiful – I Love it! The stuff was pretty well beat up – as I expected – but still wonderful! Hve been feasting on candy bars all day - will look like a Hershey pretty quick! Also had a box from Bill & Edna - It was filled with eats! Christmas was late but enjoyable! The cigarette lighter was really a God-send ‘cause matches are almost nil here! I Love You My Darling! Have had oodles of mail – so much that |
 | I can’t do justice to it – even Uncle Bill wrote – and I received an awfully nice letter from Father Hughes! Must try and answer so many as I possibly can – but I’ve been having a hard time staying awake long enough to write! Getin Lazy – hey? I Love You! The war news has certainly been encouraging – we just heard that Warsaw was liberated – those Russians will wind Hitler’s tail around a few notches! Can remember when we’d get Prisoners how happy they were to be captured by Americans than Russians - They’re really afraid of those Russians and a good reason why they should be! Maybe this thing will end one of these days after all – I hope and Pray! I Love You! |
 | There isn’t any more news on getting back – Am just waiting & praying!! Gee Honey I hope everything goes O.K.!! I Love You Hon! Won’t be long – hey Mom!! I’m getting more concerned every day – and am looking forward to it eagerly! Not that I didn’t before – but it’s more so now! I Love You Honey! Goodnight Darling! Thanks a Million for the ring and stuff – I Love You So Much Hon! God Bless You! Love & Kisses & Hugs Your Ole Man Johnnie |
