V-MAIL DATED 5-28-44
Dear Mom,
I just recd. two swell letters from you May-19th and May-18th and was really glad to hear everyones allright at home. I’m still doing fine. I have seven missions in now and I’m entitled to the air metal [sic]. I’ll sure be glad when this darn war is over so we can all be together again. Tell sister not to make to many messes (as usual) when she helps you to clean house. Ha! Ha! I guess she’s repainting everything again isn’t she. (She would)
I visited London again and had a swell time while I was there. If you haven’t bought the bond for Lee yet just forget about it. Why don’t you ever do what I ask you? Guess I’ll have to give another lecture. Ha! No. That’s allright. Is Arch Pollard still at home? I’m glad Lee got the picture allright. I promised her one a long time ago but I just never seemed to be able to get one. Well I’ll sign off for tonight. Tell Pop & Sis hello for me.
your loving son forever
Earl Jr.
