One letter addressed to Joyce Robinson from Richard DiChristina dated June 11, 1969. He writes that he is going to basic training and is working his way towards a three-day pass so that he can come home. He mentions that he will see a dentist tomorrow to which he writes in distress, "ho boy." He writes that he loves her and misses her so much and that he plans to marry her. In a postscript he shares that he cannot wait to kiss her "4 million times," and signs his letter with "I love you, kiss" and "X's," along with a drawing of a pierced heart.
