Can you have the one of you alone with the flowers in the background enlarged? He's right. That's a great picture of Mom. Look how young she is!!! It's the original - no AI was used (or is ever used). So, it's

Nothing can interfere with the firing or so they say. A 7 page letter! They're heading out for the practice firings on the 13th of the month. Outfitted in their summer duds. This life could be interesting if they didn't have to get up so early,

Right now I don’t know when I’m going to see you. Soldiers with sickles to cut overgrown grass has to be quite a site. Nice to have special duty and get out of the harder jobs. Now time for problem solving to save the world. It's

What’s the idea of all that agitating? Rainy days and Wednesdays. The focus is the upcoming practice firings while managing the day to day tasks. I do wonder what's going on with Mom. Green Hornets? The only thing I can find is an exciting radio show on

Any town that does not know who MacArthur is deserves to be forgotten. What a nice reliable postal service. Now, let's start with the relative case history. It's a good overview of who's who. Except I'm still not clear who the Aunt

I don’t want to lose my head twice. It's so hard to leave your true love and return to an Army base especially after only a few days. A few days of nothing but REDACTED, REDACTED. Apparently, she drives him up to the highway to catch a

This month marks 3 months of marriage. Our heroes remain as blissful as ever but the g.d. war keeps getting in the way. Now they’ve stopped all passes while they increase their training on the big guns. They’re planning to test by the end of the month

Ah well I can’t figure these girls out. Make up your mind Mom. Once you get that 60 cents, the world is your oyster. Dad just might be movie star material. He could have missed his calling. But did he miss the joke? Edna Mae is beautiful. One of

I still am not sure what is required of me up there. Well there's nothing to worry about... for now. But just wait until there's another 24-hour pass and he's right back to panic. It is taboo for women to control what happens to

The Army is going to train you to be a good soldier too. I don't want to bury the lead, but she's ok for another month if you know what I mean. Passing inspection is no guarantee of a 24 hour pass so she'll

Just like a herd of cattle only naked. Wedding presents and a baby someday? I've posted pic of what i think "grand stand" shoes look like under the Courant page. Or is it Grand Stand-by? They're $6.50. Cute but they look uncomfortable. And

I’m going to throw my hands up in disgust. It's off on a special, secret mission to South Boston. Then there's the clothes washing mission. Really sounds like a lot of work to get clean fatigues. Well, somebody's clean fatigues. But it is
