I’m very well satisfied with my mail today, darling. Your letters were written March 16 and 21st, Bob’s the 18th. Thanks honey, for the wonderful pictures, they are perfect! I wasn’t looking for them this soon - what a surprise! I like your new hat darling, makes you look very well dressed. It sure makes me home-sick to look at these pictures; I only hope that I can be home with Diana and you before long. I don’t see how this war can last much longer. The news sounds very good today. We had a swell supper tonight, steak, fried potatoes, green beans, spinach, apple-cobbler, and coffee or ice water. I had a steak almost as large as my mess-kit, and I ate every bit of it. We get much better food than we did when I first came over-seas. Thanks for my birthday package darling, everything you sent was something that I wanted. I opened the coffee just to see what good coffee smells like, the aroma was wonderful! I put my pipe and tobacco in the pouch just before writing you this letter; I’m smoking it now. I’ll let you know when we can have something to eat, I know the coffee will be very good. We took some more pictures today, I don’t know how soon we can get them printed but I will send them as soon as I can. The weather is still very hot; too hot for comfort during the day. It lightninged last night but didn’t rain any. Glad to hear you are having some spring weather. I don’t think you will have very many more cold days now. I hope Riley turns up OK, it may take him a long time to get back though. The country is very rough over here, and there are not many ways to travel. I think you look wonderful in the pictures, darling. I miss you so very very much, Mary. I love you with all my heart. Yours forever, Earl �pth dieerek 4, 1945 ��aprly, 1945 ��April 4, 1945 My Dearest Wife, I hope you like this bracelet, I tried for a long time before I could find anything that I thought you would like. I will send you something else when I find what I’m looking for. I will send Diana’s pin a little later. I love you very much, Mary. Your husband, Earl Thanks again for the birthday package. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
