Tuesday Evening
Dear Mom + Dad,
Just a short note to let you know I’m still in existence. It is really hot down here 120 in the sun. The old thermometer just goes up to the top and that is no exaggeration. I imagine it is about 90 in the shade. I wouldn’t mind it so much but we have to wear our heavy clothes. We can’t change to summer issue until May 10. It is particularly hard as we have to sit in classes all day and sweat.
The work here is going to be pretty tough as they sling and awful lot at you in a short time and expect you to absorb it. It is quite possible on getting out of here I will get a rating of some sort.
By the way send my swimming trunks down so I will be able to go swimming in the camp pool soon. I’ve been having a rather good time down here as we have a little freedom when we are finished. Of course I haven’t got money to do much but I manage. I’m going to the U.S.O. dance Saturday night and see if I can make a few female acquaintances.
I’m going to drop a few lines to Nana to help her out a little and maybe you (if you’re lucky.) I'll write again soon
Love to all
Bob
