Dear Bert,

 

I got your letter today and was glad to hear from you.

I have finished school and I am in F.B.J.D. waiting to be transfered somewhere now.

The mail didn't get to me until today and then it all came at once and I have so many to ans. that this is about all I can write until I get to some other base. This is the last time I will write here.

 

Love,

John

 

It is written on USN stationery. A prime example of a wartime letter within the US.
