My Dearest,
Here I am back at the
old grind and I mean grind. I'll sure be glad when those 5 or 6 new officers arrive. Although
they may send out one or two that are already here, this addition will lighten
the load considerably.
As I told you over the
phone, the Naval Supply Depot at San Pedro will call you relative to shipping
our effects. Arrange to have the stuff delivered Friday afternoon
after 2:00 or 3:00 P.M.
Last night I went to the U.S.O. they
really put on a real show. One girl in particular imitated Gracie
Fields, Shirley Temple (as a child) and "frozen faced" Margaret
O'Brien to a "T."
Guess I'll take a rain
check on tonight's show, "Stage Door Canteen." Have no
plans for this evening. Tomorrow noon I'll run down and look the
apartment over and then phone you in the evening.
Gilman is coming
alright so get four tickets for Saturday night. After the show he's
on his own.
Hope Norma's leaky nose
is better by now. I wish I could get the kids something for
Easter. Maybe I'll find time Friday afternoon to do some shopping.
It's 12:00 and time for
a game of volleyball. Adios, My Sweet.
Love,
Gil
