6/13/43
Dear folks:
I received your letter dated June 7 43 this evening. Very good service. Wish it was all like that.
Also, today I received a letter from Libby telling me of the death of Harold Bolin. It surely was a great shock to me. I just finished writing Merle. I surely do feel sorry for her.
It is now raining and what I mean really coming down. Surely is welcomed by us because as I have written before we depend on all our water from the heavens.
Mother we rearranged our shack today. We put our cots in a different corner. It helps because one gets very tired of looking at the same thing all the time and it looks very much as if I will be here for quite a spell. However I am getting a little rest and recreation for some of my men in the near future but they will come back to me.
Have I ever got a headache this evening. Have had a great deal of reading to do today. I still refuse to wear glasses although I wear my dark ones all the time.
I am just not in the mood for writing this evening but wanted you to know I am thinking of all of you.
All my love,
Leo
