letter of august 26, 1943



Aug 26, 43

Dear Dearie and Grandpa

Thanks for the letter and the funny papers the whole room appreciate them. But tell me what's the idea of Grandpa getting sick. What ever you do, don't let the heat get you down I do hope you are feeling alright now.

The weather here is terrible, we haven't had a rain in ages, they say it cools off in about another month, I sure hope so. One thing I have noticed, we are now getting up before the sun rises and its quite dark. Also I believe they are going to add on that work week very soon so that means I will be here just a little longer.

I have only one more shot to take, thank heaven! its been pretty tough. My appetite is never satisfied so I guess thats a good sign of something. Please don't forget to send some more stamps if you can, I'm about out. I have to run now. Will write you both again in a little while. Grandpa don't forget to take care of yourself and Dearie say hello to the gang.

Love
Robert
