Our WWII Soldier Is Getting Tired of Good Old England

My Darling Mark,

Hello Sweetheart!!

Since I haven’t anything else to do tonite for a change – I’ll attempt to scratch out a few lines to you honey.

         I was answering some letters to my Aunts & cousins that have stacked up on me.

         I went to the show here at Camp tonite & seen “White Cargo” with Hedy Lamarr. Mercy! She’s enough to make anybody go nuts! In a place like that – I mean.

         Everything is about the same here honey. I go on missing you & loving as each day passes. I just wonder how much longer we’ll have to sweat this place out. I’m sure getting tired of “good old England”!

         Well – honey I’ll guess I’ll close for tonite & shave & hit the hay.

         I wanted you to know I’m thinking of you always.

         Goodnite now Darling & write soon. I miss you & love you honey.

         All My Love        Johnny

Hedy Lamarr
