Somewhere in USA
East Coast

May 16, 1944

My dear Grace,

I can't write mcyh cause the place I am stationed at now is a place no body is to know about.  In other words it does not exist to anybody but the fellows that are here.

I could say that this place is just like any other camp.  Has the same building same PX and the same kind of theatre.

My address states that I am in New York, that is not so.  I am on the East Coast but not New York.  I am not able to use both sides of the paper because this mail is being censored now.

I really don't have anything to say because of the strict secrecy that surrounds this place.  By the time you receive this letter you should be graduating.

...something has been cut out...

Guess I'll close now. 
Sincerely  with love,
Ray
