	I Love You Darling! Wednesday 20 Sept 44 8 PM France My Darling Peg: Have myself almost crying with lonesomeness – have looked at – and relooked 50 times all my pictures of you. Cieslewicy's cousin is here and we were reading Press Gazettes– looking at Pictures and talking of old times – gee it’s hell to have to be over here so far from everything we Love & enjoy. Such is life! I sure do Love You Darling and miss you an awful lot, in fact so much that I’m lost if I at least don’t hear from you! So today I found myself – received one letter today. Had Parki announcement
	in it. ‘Twas about time we received it! Honey please tell me more about the trip up home – they don’t write very often. Received two letters from them while I was in England, but that’s all. I try & scribble a note to them once or twice a week. I Love You! Right now the conversation has turned to discharge. That darn old Arm of Occupation is really the question – wonder how long it would last. If we hit it? Wonder how long it will take to knock the Japs on their fanny? Since coming to France
	the news has been extremely thin. The Stars & Strips is are only source of news (excuse please we now have a Radio)! Honey you asked about the Buzz Bombs while we were in England – they didn’t bother us to much – hope you didn’t worry about them – cause I never! Well Darling – goodnight & take good care of yourself. God Bless you!   I Love You Darling! Love & Kisses Johnnie Love Me?

	I Love You Honey! Tuesday 19 Sept 44 France My Darling Peggy: Crowed a little to soon in yesterdays letter about not getting any mail from you. Received two letters and they were wrote Labor day and mailed the 4th. There are probably quite a few of them out. I Love You Honey, and miss you an awful lot! Am glad that everything is coming along O.K. When I never received word from you I was kind of worried. Hope you never got sick on the trip home. If possible they needn’t know that their about to become grandparents.
	Will get ahold of Mary Aleschrins(?) address for you as soon as I can. But please be patient, because I can’t locate him as yet. But as soon as I get oriented around here I’ll try & accomplish the mission. I Love You! I forgot all about Labor Day until you mentioned it in your letter. But then everyday’s alike here – only on Sundays we go to Church. Saturday [nite?] is just another cold damp night with nothing to do & no place to go. Ask dad where he landed when he came to France. [Chess’s?] dad sent him a few of the ports etc. & they
	almost duplicate ours.  Just for the sake of comparison. Believe I’ll hae to go back to school after the war - ‘cause I can’t even spell anymore, let alone write! No Honey as yet I haven’t received an Iron Mt News – although it does take about 4-6 weeks to get over here – guess they swim! Well Darling goodnight & May God Bless You! I Love You! Love, Kisses & Hugs Your Hubby Johnnie
