Thursday Dec. 23, 1943



Dearest Kitten:
Are you sitting down? If you are not, you had better. Your husband has just been given a new job. You will be very surprised when you find out about it.
First I must tell just how much I love. From now on you will wonder a great many times whether I do or not. You will be fortunate to receive a letter a week from me. My new duties are such that all my time will be practically taken up. I will write as often as it is possible for me to from now on, or until they find that I can not handle the job well enough.
My love for you is so great that I will always try to write whenever I can.
Just thinking of you makes me have goose pimples all over. See what you do to me.
The suspense has been long enough - I am the new First Sgt. Acting at present but I will soon have my promotion as soon as it is possible.
Remember, I told you about one of the Officers asking me all kinds of questions. Well it was all leading up to my taking over as First Sgt. It came sooner than what it was supposed to. The old 1st Sgt. was AWOL this morning so they had me take right over.
Sorry that I have to close so soon, but duty calls.
Regards to everyone & kiss the babies for me.
Your Loving, Devoted, and Faithful Husband
Bob
