Dear Folks:
It has been quite some time since I have received a letter from you. The mail is very funny at times so I probably will get three or four letters at once from you before long. You people surely have been swell about writing and it means a great deal to me.
The war news in Europe has sounded very good lately. The sooner it is all over the happier I will be.
By the way I mailed Dr. Simmons one of the magazines and I also answered Beulah & Sams letter.
Was glad to hear that Bobby’s temperature was nothing serious. I got a letter from Anne and Robert added a note onto it telling me they had Bobby to see the specialist.
The temperature is the same but I am getting used to it by now I imagine that cold weather will really make me shiver. I am ready to shiver.
Am checking into the insurance and should know before long what happened to the policy. Anyway my pay account has me credited with then thousand and that is where it counts.
Believe me I surely do miss all of you and the happiest day of my life will be when we are all united.
All my love,
Your son Leo,
1st Lt. L.J. McLoskey
PS I am feeling ok and hope you are the same.
