Dear Folks & All
It has now been 76 hours since I have had one blink of sleep. But now I want to drop you a line to let you know I am alive and ok.
How are the Marshalls? Tell them hello for me.
Wish I could tell you all the story. Keep the chin up. We Marines will soon have the Japs pushed back to Yokohama and then we will really give them the works.
Hope this finds all of you well.
Your son, Leo
Lt. L.J. McLoskey
