Your latest letter was a honey, you get better and better all the time. And you’re right on quite a few counts too. The friendship will exist and ripen I hope. But you’re wrong on one count. That I’m not proud of your grades.Well I am proud. One “D” isn’t too bad and the “A” counteracts that. Anyway, considering all the distractions you had you did pretty good and I’m proud of you. Maybe during the next semester I may be home and there is one distraction you’ll love--for sure.
Your mother seems to be quite a drinker (not a derogatory remark) like my Mom--and I’m glad you wrote to her. It will make her feel good. Anyway, tell your Mother that when I arrive in Pomona I’ll sit down and go along with her drink for drink--although I like my Sherry straight.
We are all tense concerning the outcome of these peace talks but it looks awfully good from here. If there is peace I don’t know what the Division will do but there is a rumor that Eisenhower has asked for the 25th Div. Oh sob, gasp, sob.
While I’m in Japan I’ll be able to get those earrings for you so be ready for a surprise. Oh yes--oh goddamnit--don’t, repeat don’t join the WACS, or any branch of the service for that matter. If you need money I’ll send it but don’t join the WACS. Please.
How is Pomona these summer days? It’s too hot here and really hot. I’m looking forward to the week in Japan where I can roll into some cool officer club and gorge myself. In just five days I’ll be on my way. Certainly wish I had your phone number. I’d like to talk to you again. I would even pay for it on this end.
So Hon, okay. Hope I get a letter from you today. The mail will be in in about three hours. Now, at 4:15 PM 5 July we’re listening to Pres. Truman in Washington on 4 July. Only it ain’t coming in so good.
Please write real soon. Say Hi to all and bye for now, and if you need money, please say.
