Dear Jean:

Too bad you can't come swimming with me. You should see my sun tan!
Very glad to hear that Bill Dexter has been knowing down the Hun. He should be careful. It's a very dangerous pastime!

It's been so long since the Fall of 1939 that I can hardly remember when we weren't fighting.

Vancouver must be a great city to live in or visit as you often do.

How is Aunt Ida? Have you any recent photographs of Ronny, Mother and Dad? Ron must be some kid by now.

Tell the night shift to stop their chatter and get down to work. (If any)

Love

Bill
