12 June 1943

 

Dear Folks:

I can’t put off writing you much longer—the last five days have been busy ones for me and this is about the first time I could sit down for awhile and catch up on my correspondence.  Had a letter from June today—about the first one I guess.  And yesterday had another letter from Dick and we are just waiting for the day.  Arrangements for transportation are difficult for any certain day but I’m sure we can get together alright.  I’m going to ask you to send me twenty dollars by money order to help me with this trip.  It will cost me fifty dollars or more and with my allotment and bond it will cut me pretty short.  If you register the letter it will arrive much faster.  Has the thirty-five dollar allotment been arriving?  Well, I’m going to take a shower, go to the show and tomorrow go on pass and to the dance.  A short letter but at least it’s something.

Love,

Harold Moss Signature
