Dear Folks

Hope you got cablegram. 9 letters I wrote. You should have received about six since you wrote me.

I received parcel & cablegram don't need a sweater, have everything, have plenty of soap, sometime put in some razor blades, otherwise O.K. Got Glen's cigarettes I wrote him. Got a letter from Gordon week ago, doing O.K. thinks the coast is the place for the winter.

Spring here, days a little longer, were busy flying at OTU coastal command, all Canadian crew except second pilot bag & of flying hours as they say here!

Took your telegram long time, was sent here & then back to base, and office, finally coming back again, glad to get it & parcel
You can send me Lewis address & tell Glen to write O.K. on Bob & Bill Mͨ etc Let me know if you got most of my letters.

Will sign for now. How is Lill? Your son Claude
