Addressed to "Dad + Bee." He thanks them for their various letters written anywhere from a month to six days ago. He catches up with his father about news from home and asks if his parents received a letter and a card where he asked them to order flowers for Pam. If they did, he asks that they cash the check so his bank account will be squared away. His program is bogged down as they don't have enough functioning planes to fly or enough people to fix them.
The letter is dated as "Oahu, Hawaii, September 23rd." "Letters in a Box" dates the letter as September 23, 1944.
