Feb 1, 1945 Dearest Evelyn, After all those letters I've been getting from you I'd better try and write a note at least. Believe me, its a problem trying to write letters. The thing that is whirling through my mind is the way the news has been going. You may not have to enlist yet. Cripes, what a blow it would be if the war over here would end. I don't blame you for worrying a little about those State Board Tests. They mean the end of three years hard work. What a spot for letter writing. There are twelve of us lying around in the loft of a barn. Nice huh? It is really a beautiful day. The sun is shining for a change and its nice and warm.
