June 6, 1944
Tuesday morn
Dear Grace,
I'll bet you are wondering what ever happened to me. It's been quite awhile since I left the states and am at sea. I figure it will be quite some time before I reach my destination.
Today we received the good news that the Invasion had started. Yesterday we heard that Rome had fallen.
I hope you had a nice graduation and I do hope that the flowers arrived that I had sent on time and to the right place.
Here on the ocean we had a storm all night and this ship of ours sure is bucking.
.....something has been cut out.....
Did you ever get those pictures? I hope you did. I'll be waiting for them. Before you send out the pictures let me mail you my new address. I'll have it as soon as I land.
I really don't have any more news so I guess I'll close thinking of you.
As ever,
Ray
