My darling,
Have 3 letters to answer – ‘ain’t” it wonderful. Move over – I’ve been sick too. Came down with a touch of flu Thursday morning and struggled to class both Thursday and Friday with aches and a fever – some GI’s but not severe. Finally shook it yesterday and am in A-1 condition today. Haven’t eaten anything but coffee and ice cream since Thursday. Am going to get a meal tonite though. Tell Shonny I hope she’s better now – we were sick together.
I don’t think the final grade is released here – you either complete the course and graduate or you get sent home. It may have an effect on future jobs but not on promotions.
Hope Jimmie is ok and no ill effects from his tumble. Tell Shonny Daddy says for her to real careful when she watches Jimmie.
Thanks for Chucks picture – it looks good to me. How about sending one of you?
We may get an airplane for D.C. next weekend if the weather is good. Will call Mury Thursday nite if we are going.
Meil just heard from Millie that they are being transferred to Albuquerque as soon as he gets home. Also understand that Carl Johnson is going to Ankara, Turkey. What a break. Wish we had a deal like that. Maybe our orders will come soon.
Am lonesome as blazes, honey. Its rainy and dull here so we’ve been laying around all day but its gtting supper time so will brave the elements and go eat and to a show.
Miss you more and more all the time. Can hardly wait to get home. Thank heaven we’re almost ½ through.
Got to run now – now that I’m ok will write more often. All my love to the best there is -

I love you
Hubby
