Dearest Mary,
No mail came in today. I just finished writing a letter to Bob Silvey. He asked about Diana and
you. He didn’t tell me what he was doing; just said that it took a strong back so he must be working
pretty hard. He is in the Philippines.
I’m glad to hear that you have gained some weight; you could stand a few more lbs. I don’t
know how much I weigh; there are no scales around here. Soon as I get weighted I will let you know.
I looked at my gas mask, and it has W. S. on the can so it must have been made at Ward Stilsons.
I don’t know how long the war will last over here, it may be sooner than we think - I hope!
I love you, Mary.
Your husband,
Earl
