Dearest Mary,
No mail to-day. One of the boys in my tent for a package yesterday. That’s all the mail there has been in
the last two days. He got a can of pop-corn so we are going to pop it this evening. I have not had any
pop-corn since I left the states.
How is Diana? I was just looking at the pictures you sent me. She looks much taller since I last
saw her. Send me some more pictures when you can. I wish you would send some of yourself. I suppose
film is pretty hard to get thought.
I think there is going to be a movie tonight, so I’m going - about 8:00.
I love you more each day, darling.
Your husband,
Earl
