Dear folks & all:
Although I dropped Robert a letter this evening I also want to write to you. As I told Robert I got thirty letters today and was I ever glad to get them. Long time no mail. Thanks a million for the stamps. I can surely us them.
Incidentally send my mail from now on until you hear further from me to the following address:
1st Lt. L.J. McLoskey
First Defense Battalion
c/o Fleet Postmaster
San Francisco, Calif.
This will reach me where you received the pictures from. I’ll be going back there about the first of the month. I am learning about the new blitz buggies.
I seem to have caught myself a cold but as soon as I finish this I am going to hit the sack, take a couple of aspirin and fall asleep as I am plenty tired tonight. We have been out firing on the range all day and it was plenty dusty.
Just a line to let you know I love all of you and haven’t forgotten any of you. I can’t understand why you haven’t heard from me.
All my love,
Leo
1st Lt. L.J. McLoskey
