| Letter to brother, Tom. |
My Little Notes: Well good thing he got the letters yesterday from the family! A shame that his pictures did not turn out from his recent visit. Also, I guess he learned a lesson not to drink malted milk before a flight! The letter to his brother Tom talked about the "cool things" in the Army like driving a jeep around in mud and seeing flighter planes. Also, telling Tommy to be a good boy and do his chores, so he can get use to KP when he joins the Army. It will be 6 years later that my Dad will enlist......but it will be in the Navy!
