Dearest Betty


Letter # 54
February 13, 1951
Pohang

Haven’t written for a day or so, been pretty well occupied. We opened a Rifle Range down on the beach and then my good friend Major Coffee detailed me to have a recreation hut built---a prefab job. Well I finished it yesterday. He called me on the phone last night and ordered it taken apart and crated up in small loads for shipment. Yes, we are about to be on the move again. We can kiss the rotation plan goodbye I think. Saw Eddie Hill this morning. He asked about you as usual.

We are having fine weather here now but the Reconnaissance say much snow further up. Do I ever hate this cold weather.

Street sent Ginny a roll of film to be developed & I told him to give you my part

Well, Sweetheart, wish I could sit down to a good game of Canasta with you tonight and just have a good look at you. I miss you more & More especially when I had a goal to look forward to.

All my love
Your Bill
