my Dearest Doris & Johnnie
Somewhere in the Phillipine’s I finally got some mail today, 20 letters pretty good, also got 4 birthday cards.
One of the Guys here got 85 letters, he will be reading letters for a week.
Well honey after reading all those letters and all the questions you ask. Some of the questions I can’t answer.
About sending letters airmail, I can’t see that they get here any sooner, because today I got my mail right alone with the other guys mail that was send air mail, But I will let you know later. That is if you will send some air mail an others just regluar [sic] mail. It was sorta funny when you said I might be father again, But as I read letter after letter I found that everything is O.K.
I just got threw cleaning up and got my bed already to get in.
I done a little work today seem sorta good to do something.
Well honey I didn’t write many letters while I was on the ship because we didn’t have room hardly to turn around let alone finding a place to write a letter.
Glad to hear that Jimmie is O.K. now. Yes honey I really got a laugh out of Betty few lines.
I also got some pictures from mother & Tillman sure was glad to get them.
Sounds like Johnnie is having quit a time. Hope he gets alright.
Honey there isn’t much use of telling you anything about the Filipino’s as you see enough of them in the States. They seem to be pretty happy that the Americans are back.
Yes honey we did have quit a trip coming over. Seen alot of places that you have heard a lot about.
Honey I will write you every time I get a chance. Tell the other kids that I will write them soon.
Say I got the plastic paper yesterday I will write them a few lines. I do enjoy reading it.
Well honey I can’t think of any other questions you ask, that I can answer. I could write a dozen pages but there would be no use.
Our food is still pretty good. At least we manage to fill up and that is what counts.
It rains here quite a bit. Rains one minute and sun shining the next minute. It isn’t so very hot here, its get a little warm in the day time but at night we have to have a blanket.
From the looks and sound of things they really play for keeps.
Alson & Jolson are excepted [expected?} here some time in the future.
Will close for now.

All my Love,
Shorty
