Hello Ben – Helen and All<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Think I will write you a letter as long as I have all the time in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last Sunday I didn’t feel very good, but being it was Sunday I laid around that is after the parade that I was in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyhow Monday I went to the Medics. The Doc, took my temperature it was 103 so to the hospital I went. This makes four days I am here. I feel nearly ok still have a little sore throat and cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I had to have my chest xray. I guess I come near having a touch of ammonia, I certainly am glad I didn’t have it the only nice thing about this place is we have a radio. I enjoy listening to it. Its very seldom that I get to here one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fri Nov 12 I didn’t finish this yesterday. So will work at it today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I feel good today I suppose I will be going back to the Co in a day or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was glad to here you had so many potatoes. This year. I suppose if I had to do KP I won’t think it so nice. Probably wish they would all rotten. ha. Anyhow you should clear some nice money on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Are you going deer hunting this year? I suppose you and Al are getting ready for it I have a hunch you are going because you did not go last year. I certainly hope you get one. About the only thing that might hold you from going is “gas” or did you save enough for the trip?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The weather stays awful damp. Rain nearly every day. In fact its raining out now. We haven’t had a frost yet from what it looks like it don’t get too cold in this part of England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I believe it would be better if it did get cold instead of this damp weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are three other fellows in this same ward from my Co. so we keep each other company. they want me to play rummy so I will go to pass the the afternoon away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Does Dorothy Davis still stop in? You can tell Marie Upell I said Hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also tell Mrs. Miller that I get her letters. Always glad to hear from her but I have so many people to write to. I am all wrote out by the time I get to her. How is Bud?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From your Bro<\/p>\n\n\n\n
