Dear June:
I miss you so much, darling. I hope Sunday gets here quick. I called my folks up at seven. My sister is coming in with my mother tomorrow afternoon.
I had a visitor tonight – a girl from Southampton who’s training here. She didn’t stay long because she had to go on duty at 6. It was nice to see a familiar face. But don’t worry, darling. You’re the only one for me.
A guy here who had his knee operated on showed me his scar. It wasn’t bad. He had his operation ten days ago and he’s walking around pretty well now.
I can’t seem to think of anything I haven’t told you already so I’ll just say, I love you, I love you, I love you. I wish you were in my arms right now. G-r-r-r-r. You’d better watch out for me when I get home.
Guess I’ll say goodnight now. I miss you very much, darling. Be good, don’t worry, and I’ll see you Sunday.
All my love,
(Tomorrow – Nothing could keep me away.)
