Dearest Mother,
I received your letter tonight and was very glad to hear from you.
The reason I'm writing a card is because I don't have time to write a letter.
We have to fall out at 7 oclock for some more drill. We have our big test tomorrow, and tonight
we're going to get a workout.
So Tony and Phil have been home on a furlough, well mother I'm really glad they came home,
because I know that it made you very happy.
I won't be home for a good while, but until I do come home, mom, please don't worry about me
because I'm O.K. Well good bye mother dear till later.
Your loving son
"Jim"
