Wednesday Afternoon
Dear Mom + Dad,
If this letter gets smudged it is because I’m sweating so much. The heat around here has been terrific the last few days. Of course it is always hot but it seems to be hotter if possible.
Your letters arrived today with all the stuff in them. I now have enough letters and the rest of my junk to submit my application. Thank you very much and everything is O.K. I’m going to go up to the office this evening to get it all typed out. I have to go into L.A. to take my physical exam and that is a decided inconvenience but there in nothing I can do about it. When I get the appointment though I can get time off. I might even get a 3 day pass and combine a little pleasure with my business. Thank you again.
As to the $25 I don’t care what you do with it. You can use it if you wish. I just sent it home so that if I need money I can get it. God knows you’ve contributed enough to me so if you want to start a bank account that’s all right too. Just use your own judgment as whatever you want to do with it is all right with me.
Gee your lucky to be able to go on your vacation Sept 5. I wish I could go with you. I sure hope you have a good time. Drop me a line and let me know where you’re going. Next time you write tell me something about “sweetheart”. I sure miss that old buggy. I got my money’s worth out of that car. However, when I get back I want to get a new one if I can afford it. I think not having a car is one of the worst parts of being in the army.
It is funny how you receive my mail. I write everyday and they shouldn’t pile up and come in all at once. 4 in one day thats amazing! I guess the old U.S. mail is crossing me up.
My morale has picked up in the last few days. I guess it must be that news about non com school. You have relapses through as every once in awhile the whole thing gets on your nerves. Most of the time I just try to make the best of it and usually succeed.
I guess that covers everything for now. I’ll write again tomorrow.
Love
Bob
