 | Ward B-8 Friday 3:30 PM My Darling Peg: Arrived back here on time – it was a heck of a trip, I was so darn lonesome that I couldn’t even eat – and now that’s really getting back when that happens to me! I Love You Peg Honey and miss you & Jackie more than words can express. Believe it or not they’ve already looked me over – they’re going to X-Ray my leg tomorrow & I’m going to get treatments. And guess what? I’m not supposed to be on my leg! The Doctor said I was awfully lucky having the knee actions that I do – and he couldn’t quite figure out why it does work so well! But you know my recuperative powers are are just too good! I Love you! Pray that I get a discharge Honey! Haven’t heard from Winnie yet - just wonder what he’ll do? It sounded encouraging – but he also said “Remember I’m not promising you”. You see I wanted to wire you & have you make a 75 dollar down payment but he didn’t think it very practicable – Oh well – we’ll see – enclosed

 | is a 5 dollar bill – I was paid today (by check) for March & April – I drew all of 39.26 – can’t quite figure out where it all came from but won’t put up any argument! Gee we have 70 bucks coming that I forgot about – I get 66 cents a day while home – so that’s 66+45=330 – and also a 7 month rebate on my insurance premium which is 6.50* 7 = 45.50 – but it’ll be some time before I get the insurance money – almost 3 months! I Love You Honey! Have about 10 packs of smokes for your Dad – will have to get them packed and on their way soon – I’ve got to get settled a little more first – they’ll be home next week though! I Love You! How’s Jackie – I sure hate missing watching him grow – Even a month will make a big difference in him. He’s sure pretty darn wonderful – and he has the most wonderful Mother in the World! I only hope the three of us are together soon! Honey don’t plan to hard on my getting discharged – I’ll probably know in a week or so – they’re giving them out pretty regular but this is one time we can’t expect something because the guy next to me gets it! I Love You Honey! |
 | Received a lot of mail – enclosed is a letter from Chess – am quite proud of it so keep it! Had two letters from Joe – all pretty old & a couple from Father Rank & the rest from you! None of the Packages came. Well my sweetheart I hope you’re feeling good & that our son isn’t to wide awake at midnight. Hope it won’t be to long ’till I can get home & do his working. Until then we can take it cause that’s the way we’re built – rugged! Goodnight Darling! God Bless You! I Love You! Love & Kisses Johnnie Minton is transferred to O’Reilley Gen in Missouri! |
