Get 4 letters today – two
from you + one from Claire &
Josephine – Claire really wrote a
long letter – it was about ten pages -
and you know how small she writes -
well it was really something – a pretty
nice letter – will have to answer
it as soon as I can – Josephine’s was
just about the size letter I always
write – only she had a few other
nurses write a few diddies – was
kind of nice! But of course the best
were your letters – I sure Love

1945-02-19_Page_2 You Darling! Am always eager
to get your letters – but now that
things are so close to your D-Day
I’m doubly eager!  I hope & Pray
that all goes well for you Honey!
Your letters certainly sound as
though all’s going well! I Love You!

Am feeling fine – and really
have hopes of things getting going
soon – at least I hope they do -
I’ll be a nervous wreck pretty soon!
I Love You!

Don’t know too much about the
fellows in My Company – what
I do know can’t be wrote anyhow!
But “Chess” is still going – which
is something at least – I Love You!
1945-02-19_Page_3 Am going to write Joe a note
tonight – Claire sent his address 00
that will be something – as it’s
been such a long time since I’ve
written him!

Well Darling good night &
take care of yourself – Am Praying
for you Honey!

God Bless You!
Love & Kisses
Your
Johnnie

My Darling Peg!

Can’t quite understand why
the mail is so darn slow in coming -
I know you sent a letter everyday
but they just aren’t getting here – I
hope the Postman is treating yuo a
little better! I Love You Peg Hon!

AM going to a Boxing Match
tonight – Billy Conn is around
visiting the guys – don’t think he’s
going to fight – but there’ll be
a bunch of other fights that should
be interesting to watch – reminds
me of when I was a “Prig”!

There isn’t any news yet about
getting home – but I have hopes
it won’t be long! It’s hard too
be patient – but it’s pretty nice to be
thinking that there’s even hope of getting
home! I Love You Hon!

Hope you’re feeling fine --
Am Praying that all will go
sell for you!

Doodnight Darling! God
Bless You Honey!

I Love You Honey!
Love & Kisses
Johnnie

My Dearest Darling!

Received the long awaited letter
about Ole tonight – there’s quite a few
things that are wrong – such as his
having been Missing In Action – he never
was Missing – will tell you all about
it when I get home – Ruth surely
is taking it courageously – that letter
she wrote is a master-piece – but I
guess anything like that would bring
quality! Sure glad she knew he heard
about the Baby – he was really a
happy fellow!

Got another Xmas box
today – from Mr & Mrs Joe {Libiegin?} -
1945-02-15_Page_2 had some candy, cigarettes and a
pack of playing cards – still have
a few more on the road somewhere -
but as long as the Ring got here
I doesn’t make too much difference
how long I have to wait! I Love You My Darling!

Was on a Red Cross Tour
again today – we saw a Cathedral
that had been started in the year
670 – most of the work was done
in the 12th and 13th century – old stuff!
We then had “Tea” (or Punch) and
came home! I bought a little spoon
for our Baby – sort of a Souvenir  like-
not worth anything much! I Love You!

Hope the Baby isn’t kicking
up to much of a fuss – and that
all is well – am Praying that
everything turns our O.K.! I
Love You Peg Darling!

Goodnight Darling and God
Bless You!

I Adore You Peg Honey
Love & Kisses
Johnnie
