Gosh but I
love you Sweetheart and miss you from the bottom of my heart. How I wish that
you were by my side so that I could touch you and talk to you. What a pleasure
that would be.
I received
letter #253 today. Getting poetic huh? The poem was very nice and I appreciated
it very much as it explains the way we both feel.
Sorry to have
caused you so much grief with the picture. Her name is Martha and we had a nice
long talk about our loved ones and she thought the youngsters were adorable. I
know that you will understand that we enjoyed our talk as our main subject is
both our favorite one, that happens to be you for me and her husband for her.
I only wish
that you could be with me Sweetheart. There is nothing that would make me
happier. Let’s hope that the day when we will be together again for good is not
too far distant.
By the time
that you receive this letter you should have received the flowers for our
anniversary. How did you like the little note?
How can I
forget any of the good times that we had together. They are always with me in a
very wishful way. I am always wishing for those times to return, but I always
satisfy myself by thinking of the good times we will have when I return home.
How would you
like to live in New Hampshire up in the White Mt. district? I have been thinking
about how much I would like to run a small hotel where we could have both
summer and winter guests. Swimming & boating in summer, hunting in fall, fishing
in spring and skiing & skating in winter. It will take some doing but I
hope that we may be able to swing it. Oh well, I may wind up as a travelling
salesman yet.
You should
not spoil Barbara so much. There may come a time when you will be sorry that
you are unable to leave her with someone else when you wish to go somewhere
without her.
I was rather
nasty in the letter that I wrote to you, but it was the way that I felt at the
time. I got over it though. Please forgive me as I hate to do anything to hurt
you. I trust you Sweetheart but it is the rest of the world that I do not
trust.
We have built
a volleyball court and installed lights on it. We are now building a tennis
court and basketball court together. All the work is being done with the few
men that we have left after all other details have been taken care of.
If you can,
please send me some face towels. I can not seem to hang onto them. I must be
supplying the men in the company with face towels.
Tomorrow I
have to go to a memorial service with half the company. The services are being
held in the city hall and we have to send a certain number of men to attend the
services in honor of our late president.

Sgt. Routson
who is very handy at most everything and is a carpenter by trade made me a
stainless steel band for my wrist watch. Remember the snap on band that I used
to have that was covered with leather? Well it is made on the same principle. It
is much better than a cloth or leather strap, especially for tropical duty as
perspiration rots leather & cloth very rapidly.
Well,
Sweetheart I must close. I love you with all my heart, Beautiful. Give my regards
to everyone and kiss the babies for me.
How I miss
you Darling.
Your Loving
Devoted & Faithful Husband,
Bob
