At Sea

Dear Folks & all:

By the time you have received this you will have read in the papers and heard over the radio about the drive taking place in the Central Pacific.  I am in on this. It will be the first Japanese soil we have stepped on this war.

I only hope that God guides me in my judgment over my men in the landing and that we may soon end this war.

Don’t worry I will be ok and just remember I love and miss all of you.

There I nothing else I can write or say.

All my love,

    Your son, Leo

1st Lt. L.J. McLoskey
