Saturday Evening
Dear Mom + Dad,
While I have just a few minutes I’m going to write a few lines. I’m waiting to go into Indio so I may have to cut this short somewhere.
We were supposed to move back to Camp Friday but only a few of us went back and most of us stayed back in Desert Center. However this noon we got orders to move in. So we packed up and got here around 4 P.M. We are now on a more or less alert and I expect we will move out again to some other spot in the desert tomorrow morning. We are awaiting order and hanging over. It is fairly certain that we will only be here a few days. No knows exactly what the score is. So we will just have to wait and see what develops. Maybe we will and maybe we won’t. So I’m hoping for the best.
I understand to that some of the boys are going on furlough. Things are in such a dither that you can’t tell the score. I’ll try and clarify the situation as soon as it clarifies here. It really beats me.
Your letter written on my birthday arrived today along with several others. I’m way behind on my mail but thanks for the well wishes. Tell Brother + Marion I received their cards and I’ll write as soon as I get caught up. I also received another letter from Russ. He seems to be doing fine and doesn’t have it hard at all. He is near Honolulu and there is no actual conflict there. He gets time off for swimming and all that stuff. It sure was good to hear from the kid.
Well that’s all for now. If I get a chance I’ll write tomorrow. I can’t promise anything but I’ll do my best.
Love
Bob
