I'm having an awful time getting this written, a carpenter is rebuilding the door on one end of the day room it blew open last night and just splintered it, that makes lots of noise and the communications radio is in one end of our day room and it eep eeps constantly receiving messages. I never could concentrate on anything I expect thats one reason I was never a good student.

    I got a kick out of what Bev. said about the Grimes girls and her appetites It doesn't seem as tho she can be finishing high school this year. That whole family surely does work. Im glad the silo didn't all get filled at once, you can put so much more in if they let it settle I expect Anton hates to see so much go in to it tho.
    Im sure I wont get to Willow Run now. That is the training I lost out on when I shipped right out of school on the line. It would have been specialization on one particular ship the B-24 for example
