February Wed. 1941

Fort McArthur, Cal.

Feb. Wed. 1941

 Dear Roxie,

 I reached California last night at 12:00, boy was I tired. We stayed in our cars, on the train, for four day (days) and three nights without getting off. 

I think I will like it better here than I did at Columbis (Columbus) We are not allowed to leave the for 6 weeks, then only when we are ordered too (to).

We are up on a high hill so we can look out on the Pacific Ocean and see ships comeing (coming) in to land. It sure is a pretty place. I will try to get some pictures, later on, and send them to you. There is a sign at the entrance of the fort that say (says) "no pictures to be taken". It is just like summer out here. 

I hope you are still at home with Mother. I want to write her a letter too, tonight if I have time.

Honey, I want you to be true to me while I am gone. I couldn't two-time you if I wanted to ( I don't want to)

I will have to close now if I am going to write to mother. I will try to write more the next time.

All my love to you,

Your Husband

P.S.

 Dear Sweetheart,  I received your good letter today and was awful glad to hear from you dear. I can't understand why it took so long for my letter to reach you, without it wasn't sent by airmail. I know how it is dear about writing, Sometimes there just isn't a thing to write about, that the way I am now, but if you are ever that way just write and say you still love me. That makes me feel a lot better dear.   Honey you don't want to do any worrying about me for there hasn't even been an enemy plane or ship close here. The only way I could get hurt is to fall out of bed, and I have never done that for years so I don't think I'll start now.   Honey I sure wish you could see me now. I have a nice little mustach now. All the boys here are growing them and some of them sure look funny. They are just about all collars, sizes, and shapes.  I hope you do stay there with Mother and Dad until I come back dear. They need someone now worse than before. I bet you...
