I got my shirt back today with insignia sewed on. I guess I'll have to get another pair of pinks as we have to wear them every night at retreat and so have no change to get them cleaned - as it takes about three or four days to get them back from the cleaners. Our weather is moderating some and each day some of the snow and ice melts. Can't all melt too soon to suit me. Ted's (my roommate - his name is Frank but his nickname is Ted) wife came this afternoon & he is out there this evening. I haven't met her yet. He has a little girl 4 and a boy 2. There are forcing us to turn out our lights at 10:45 so it really rushes us to get all the reading done they assign us. Nothing much new. Enclosed is another letter for Mother. Love & kisses to all. Daddy P.S. What is Van's address? P.P.S. How's the ankle? Don't work too hard nor be on it too long. What about making Homestead Exemption application?
