29 September 1943
Dear Folks:
Received your letters of 20 Sept 43 today and that is pretty good time. I also got the letter you mailed from Peoria with the picture of Robert in it.
As to the picture I just mailed you, Roberts and Leota all a big picture about a week ago. You should have it before long. Am sorry you had to go to the expense of getting the other one enlarged but I thought I wrote and told you that I was going to send you some pictures.
The picture in the Tribune with the cocanut crabs that you sent to me I surely recognize.
Now don’t worry about sending me anything for Christmas except the chewing tobacco and if you can get Masterpiece.
Have been awful busy lately and as a result I haven’t had time to write you in the past week. It probably won’t happen again for awhile but if you don’t hear from me you will know I am ok and that we are awful busy which we are. Wish I could tell you what is going on but that is impossible. Probably though before long my men and me will be going to where I was in February. We will be taking Radio and all our stuff and you know what a job and worry that is for me. Just like moving a circus. Must close now. Will try and write more often. I feel ok except I could sleep for a week.
All my love,
Leo
1st Lt. L.J. McLoskey
