One letter from Leonard Eugene Graeff to Susan Prowell Graeff and Raymond James Graeff dated October 11, 1944. Updates them on the letters he received including one from Dot Runk. Runk sent along a photo of herself, and the woman she introduced Leonard to. Her name is Dottie Shearer. Runk also mentions hearing from Robert Winemiller that he was in Patton's third army. Leonard is concerned because he is in "hot country" and he hopes that Robert has good luck and doesn’t get injured. He once again thanks Susan for her letters; they make him feel like she’s just across the room talking to him. He is still very busy at the Mess halls but the extra one doesn’t make any more work. They just brought in more guys. He's very excited to receive the bracelet they sent. He hopes that the photos they took come out well, and can’t wait to see them. He also agrees that Ed Zell and Janie Bieble’s photo is cute. He also mentions little John, and inquires about Raymonds cold.
