Addressed to "Dad + Bee." He hopes that Bee is feeling better after being sick over the holidays. He thinks that Don is still stationed in England rather than Belgium, even though the Christmas card was a picture of a Cathedral in Belgium. He thanks his father for sending along the book "Is there a Santa." and hopes that he'll be reading it to everyone next Christmas. The missions flown by the "Pacific Strategic Air Force" are the ones he and his crew are flying. He writes that any time they read about "Liberators raiding the Bonins and Volcano Is. you can be sure it's one of our outfits." He asks them to keep writing and sending news clippings.
