Dearest Betty

Letter #44
December 29, 1950
Dearest Betty

Rec. mail today mailed the 17th---two letters. Thanks a lot. Well let’s see what is new. Eddie Hill came by to see me night before last and did I tell you I saw (damn it I can’t recall his name). He is the little Sgt. That cried when we left Key West Ah! Yes, Knowles is back with his outfit again. He was over same time Hill was and ah! Yes, my damn knee flew out yesterday. Been giving me Hell.

Well, Sugar, I have no more news. I have to go up to see Novack now. He called me up. Must have a letter from his wife. Did I tell you I was having a oil painting made of from my other snap. Don’t know how it will turn out.

Love,

Bill
