My Dearest One Italy
Honey it will just be a V mail this
morning. I missed yesterday because we moved.
We keep going ahead regardless of the weather.
Have seen quiet a little air activity the last
two days. Had another nice rain last night.
But this morning it is pretty & clear I havent
gotten any mail for three days, but expect
I will to day. I havent been able to locate Barney
yet, but maby I will. I understand his outfit
is some where in this section. Sweetheart
there isnt much news from here. We arent
staying in one place as long this fall as we
did last. We are moving every chance we get. It
isnt far now to the Valley and we should
see some better weather after we get there.
This leaves me OK & I hope you and the
youngsters are the same. I will write an air
mail tomorrow I love you Sweetheart
Lee
