	June 3rd 4PM Sunday My Darling Peg: It sure isn’t a pleasant Sunday – things are really dead, they don’t even have a baseball game tuned in – it’s bad. I believe I’ll have to try and go on next week – would have went today only I don’t have any clothes! Loaned a fellow a suit before I left on furlough & in the meantime he was discharged – so here I sit just plain out of clothes! I Love You Honey! Have been wondering just how on earth I ever got that 15 day extension - everyone else was turned down – maybe the Red Cross wire helped. Hope it isn’t too long till we’re together again! I miss you just loads Honey! I Love You! Haven’t had any more medical attention – just lay around & wait. If we don’t get our house & I get stationed in the states somewhere you and Jackie will have to come with me. I’m really going to buck for a discharge in the meantime – Pray hard
	Honey – I’m going to try & get to mass everyday & take communion every week anyhow. Am starting a Novena to the Sacred Heart next Monday. Going to church is the greatest consolation while I’m away – it always makes me feel so near to you! I Love you Darling! Honey I wrote Ma & told her to send you that 95th booklet – when you get it send it to Chess’s folks – You’ll find the address on that list with the Company Picture! Hope Jackie is being a good boy and that you’re getting enough sleep! Next time I get home I’m going to get up earlier – wish the days at home would’ve dragged as these are now! I’ll sign off for today – All My Love to you Both! God Bless You! Love & Kisses Daddy
