Dear Folks & All:
Haven’t heard from you for quite a spell. Suppose I will get a whole bunch of mail one of these days.
I wrote the kids this week. Still haven’t much to say except that I am kept quite busy.
The allotment will get to the bank during the first seven days of August. I checked with the paymaster.
I guess you had better quit sending the papers as I haven’t gotten any as yet. It would be just as well if you cut out the clippings you think I would be interested in and send them with the letters.
Will be having a change of address within the next few days. Now you needn’t worry as I am getting along ok and I’ll give you as much information as the law allows later on.
Am feeling fine—I still am not loosing much weight. Feel like a mullion.
Yes, Mother I feel the same as you do. I will be plenty happy when all of this is over. But until then we must keep our chin s up and I know everything will come out ok.
It is very hard for me to keep track of the date and days so if I miss some of the birthdays please let me know.
Sent you a package the other day. Please let me know when you get it.
Must close now as I have some paper work to get caught up with. Hope this finds all of you feeling fine and be sure to give my regards to all the family and friends.
Love to all,
Leo
