Addressed to "Dad and Bee." The mail is coming through a little better and it takes about ten days for mail to get from the east coast. He sent a package home yesterday with his favorite sweaters, made by Pam, and a couple pairs of socks. He has the insurance slip and asks his parents to let him know the condition of the package. They've all been putting on an air-show for "some unknown dignitary" who they all believe to be President Roosevelt.
He's managed to get to the beach every other day and just received a letter from Pam that she dictated to a friend. He asks that they all keep writing as mail call is a big deal on base.
The letter is dated as "Saturday July 29th." "Letters in a Box" dates the letter as July 29, 1944.
