below and I look like an owl sitting up here twisting my head round and round watching the planes land. I don't see how you can find my letters interesting. All I can find to write about is the army and to me that is becoming the most boring thing in the world. It wasn't bad while I was on line for there was something new every day, but this waiting around day after day is killing me. Guess I wasn't far enough away from camp after all. One of the boys just came driving up in a jeep and borrowed $10. from me. It would really be swell if you could have an apartment and work there in Dav. Sounds much better to me than army life. I still hope you stay out of the service Evelyn, but maybe they won't call you now.
