Full Text: Dearest Mother & Daddy,
Well, this is the second letter I’ve written since starting out. Right now I’m writing this on deck, so if it seems a little shaky you will know the reason. The ship is rocking some from side to side.
Everything is going fine. I went to church Sunday morning. That makes four Sundays in a row I’ve been to church. Getting good “ain’t” I?
Well the other day I did receive three letter in the mail call- 2 from you all and 1 from Aunt Esther. Gee it was good to get some mail from home to read way out here on the ocean. I appreciated the clipping about Lt. Heaffner. I know her. She was in training the same time I was & finished about six months before I did. I knew she was in the Army.
I guess tis is about all for now. Just wanted to let you know that I’m fine & all’s well.
Lots of love,
Annie Edith
