27 July 1945

 

Dear Folks:

Not much on tap for tonight so maybe I better write a few letters.  Just finished a letter to Dick and I’m going to see if he can make arrangements to visit me for a few days.  We are in a permanent area and have a pretty decent setup now.

Had a late issue Free Press today – very recent and a letter from Phil and Nancy yesterday.  Phil is turning out different than I thought he would.  Wished I would get back in time to see him.

Very little to write about.  There is nothing new on getting back.  It is just a matter of waiting.

Went to teeth inspection today and it looks like I may have some work done [soon].  The doc pulled a tooth last October and I think it’s getting bad under the filling.

Well I’m out of news so I guess I’m bound to close.

Love,

Harold Moss Signature
