Addressed to "Aunt Jane." He thanks her for the beautifully wrapped packages, treats, and reading materials. He's flown twelve missions and it's going to be a long haul. The living conditions aren't great and every time it rains "it's like living in a mud hole." He mentions that Barry is in great shape and he's seen him multiple times.
