Dearest,

Today I received two more letters from you.  They were dated August 8th and 9th.  This letter is in answer of the Aug. 7th letter.  So far darling I have written everyday since July 25th.  If I missed a night or day I wrote two letters the following day.  I answer your letters one every day so when I receive two letters from you today, I answer one of em and put the other one off till tomorrow.  So in case I do not hear from you tomorrow, this letter I received today takes it's place.  Catch on.  Complicated isn't it.

Today my darling was another day and all it involved was work and more work.  I don't mind it so much cause time travels faster.  This evening I have to get ready for Saturday's inspection.  Gotta get spic and span.

Hon, all I have to say is never worry about me cause I am in no immediate danger.  My work is easy although there is a lot of it.  I am no where near the fighting front.  Last of all I have someone like you to come home to so I won't fail you.  I'll be back so watch yourself cause my target is you.

Well darling I have nothing else to say so I guess I'll close with all my love.

Always,
Ray
