	I Love You Darling! Sunday 27 Aug 44 3:15 PM Somewhere in England Dearest Darling: Even here we pull E.Q, so it’s Sunday and as usual I’m pulling it. Can’t I figure out how their able to juggle the moves around so efficiently to enable me to pull it on a weekend every time, not that it makes any difference but oh gee how I’d like to be sleeping! I Love You! So Parky? has another kid hey? What a man he is! Four in so few years! How come you didn’t tell me about it Honey? Mary wrote me a letter which was my source of information! I hear from them once in awhile now. The
	pictures that are enclosed were sent to me from home. I have no place to keep them, so better they get home and in the album. After the war that’ll be a great thing to look at, did you have the pictures we took in Lebanon developed yet? I’d like to get one Honey if you think of sending them, I’ll send them back as quickly as possible. Gee Honey, do I ever miss you, wish things would end so we can once again be together. My goal at present is to be home by March some way, somehow. Maybe it will be all over by then – I hope! This deal about discharging some men after the European war sounds good, but I
	don’t imagine it will be us, cause there’s to many with more service & veterans of battles that will have No. 1 priority. Oh well that’s crossing to wide a bridge before coming to it! I Love You Darling! Did you have a good time at the Picnic? Remember the Kraft Picnic, we sure had a swell time didn’t we? I sure do miss you, and hope & pray it won’t be to long a time till were side by side! I Love You! Was reading a book, and it had a delightful joke on Child [learning?] that I thought better be passed on – it goes like this Hubby: Darling, tell me, how did you ever get
	get Junior to eat olives? Wifey: Simple. I started him on Martinis. Hmmm funny eh? So you’d better lay off the Martinis!! That’s almost a joke in itself, cause I guess that’s almost fantastic as the kid eating olives! I Love You! Wrote to Josephine, and plan on writing home & to the Rudegins! A rough schedule for me! Well Darling – Be good & God Bless You! Take care of yourself! I Love You! Thinking of You Always, Love & Kisses Johnnie
