Letter # 14

Dearest Betty
Be as it is may, but this is with out a doubt the dirtiest place I have ever been. We are now camped right in the middle of a road with everything shot all to Hell where the Navy blasted our landing. Just waiting to go aboard ship. The tide won’t be high until the 12th. I have a cold and the weather is turning colder.
Rec. two letters from you yesterday. Got quite a kick out of the confederate money. Glad to hear you have a roomer. They sound like very nice people. Well I am taking my jeep with me. Just got a O.K. from the Major. Will come in handy on our next landing where ever it may be. Don’t know any thing new, Sugar. I love you and miss you lots and lots.
Till next time Yours
Bill

Good morning, Sug,
Ran short of ink so will get you off a short one in pencil. No dope as to where or when. Rained yesterday so Nester & I moved to a burnt out building just has a roof & walls but dry. Gets very cold here at nite but warms up about nine or ten in the morning.
Saw Dan Searsy yesterday. We all went down to take a shower---a hot one at that, and he was coming in---just spoke to him was all.
Honey have so much to tell you about this country that is interesting but just can’t tell it all in a letter. I’ll just have to wait till I get home to give you the dope.
