Addressed to "Dad + Bee." Writes "Life is looking up!" as they are no longer restricted and can go into town as long as they report back in the morning. He and others are renting a room with a sitting room to avoid freezing in the barracks. Many groups have been shipped out, including many Childress fellows. He hopes he'll hear soon, but in any case they are hoping to see another Utah game and made reservations for a Thanksgiving dinner that night.
Letter is written on "The Belvedere Apartment Hotel" stationary and dated as "Tuesday." "Letters in a Box" notes the letter was written on November 23, 1943.
