Tuesday Evening
Dear Mom + Dad,
I’m just dropping you another one of my short notes. I’m back to work again after a three day vacation. It sure is tough to get back to the harness again. From all appearances this month is going to be a lot tougher than the first one.
Tomorrow I go up to the hospital for the first time to do a little observation in the operating room. I go up twice a week to see and do a little work in the various departments. I imagine it will be rather interesting. However I still can’t picture myself as a male nurse. Oh well the army can sure do some strange things to you.
300 new men came in yesterday and crowded the school right up to the brink. There are 988 men eating in one mess hall. You have to wait in chow line a half hour before you can even see the mess hall. I guess I won’t eat for the rest of the month.
I got paid Sunday and I have now a little over $8 to last me until the end of the month. This money situation is driving me crazy. Don’t forget my socks + cigarettes will you.
I’ll drop you a longer line when I receive one of you letters. Mail takes 5 days to arrive here from N.Y. It is really sad.
Love to all
Bob
