Hello Jane:
In the past three days I have received three letters from you, 20 April, 26 April and a V. Mail cartoon poem. Life is wonderful and so is the mailman.
You ask when I am going to resume fighting in Los Angeles. Answer: More of your drawings, such as your legs getting a sun tan and I will be fighting to get back to Los Angels. Between the legs and the lips (lewd sounding phrase) my mind is immediately filled with ideas, all in the same channel.
Do you think ya are worth chasing? Now if that isn’t a silly question. You certainly should know the answer to that one. Or didn’t I come up to expectations?
I never commented on "there is no moon – the stars are dim – (?) of tune, etc. – on account I don’t remember receiving it. Try again and send the results post haste.
Your idea of sleeping in the other bed so that you would have the phone near was marvelous. After only two and a half years – a very very keen mind. Your phone probably didn’t ring that night simply because I wasn’t there.
Since your hair is in a bad way and I have very little we will probably make a very stunning couple getting stinken at some bar when I get back.
We have had quite a time here for the past couple of days with the German PWs streaming back. We have had 15000 come through our regimental PW cage alone. I personaly evacuated 1400 woulded to surrounding hospitals.
Now that VE day has come and gone I imagine that I stand a very good chance of being put on my way to see CBI – Victory day come in [note: CBI probably means China Burma India] If so, there is a possibility of leaving the West Coast. If that day comes, be in good shape, little girl.
Thats all for now.
Bestest
Ted
