My prayer is that President Elect Donald Trump does exactly what he says he will do, and make America great again.
Thank you, Veterans!

Dear Mom and Dad,
"Just a few lines to let you know I am well..."
"I have been transferred again, this time on a ship..."
"Have you seen Jo lately?"

"I got paid yesterday... boy did I need it. I got paid forty dollars..."
Tokyo. September 30
Dear Mom and Dad,
"Just a few lines to let you know I am well and hope you are the same..."
"How's the garden getting along this year?"
"I got a letter from Jo the other day..."
"Don't forget to send me some pictures..."
Monday Aug 13
"I haven't gotten any mail from you in about a month. I guess I'll get it all at once..."
"Have you seen Jo lately? I wrote to her tonight. Tell her to answer and let me know if she gets it."
"Well this makes almost 2 1/2 years I have been in the Navy. It don't seem that long. I am getting to like it better than I did before... I get to see a lot of places and things..."
"I don't want to miss this chance to get home for Christmas..."
"We sure have been having good news lately about the war. It looks to me like it's almost over...."
Love, Bob EM 3R
Thank you, Dad. I was so blessed to have you as my earthly father. |
PS ~ The "Jo" that he talks about is my mom :-)
