Addressed to "Dad + Bee." He apologizes for upsetting them after they hadn't recieved his letter. He's "up and about on crutches" and the incision is healing "just fine." There's a lot of delay in the mail, hence why he recieved their telegram two days late. The weather has been very unusual with snow and hail.
Post Script: Asks that they write to the 607th instead of the 604th now.
The letter is dated "Tuesday 22nd." "Letters in a Box," notes the letter was sent on February 22, 1944.
