January 3, 1943 – Rugged Week Ahead


 


Sunday Afternoon

Dear Mom + Dad,

Here it is Sunday and believe it or not I've had a comparatively quiet day.  This is our second day off this week as the upperclassmen have open post and we have no school.   I think this is the last one they get and from here until next week this time we really will have to be on the ball.  It will be a rugged week but I’m ready for it.  I figure about this time next Sunday we will be upperclassmen or at least a day or so away from it.  That will be a wonderful thing.  At lease it seems so right now but I still have a tough week ahead of me.

I spent a good part of the day studying aircraft recognition.  I have it down fairly well now and I’m not so worried about it so much anymore.  I’m going to spend a little time on it tonight just as a clincher.  I want to get a good a grade as I possibly can.

I just got back from the show.  I saw “ArabianNights” and it wasn't so hot but at least it was a change from the old routine.

I’m going to try and get out of mess formation tonight and eat in our service club just as a change.  We have a new service club here and it is very nice.

Well I guess that’s it for now.  I’ll try and write again as soon as possible.  I probably won’t have much time this coming week but I’ll try and get a few words in here + there.

Love
Bob
