Hi, Sugar,
Well what do you know we moved, got set up, all before dark. Jimmy came over to see me. He has been assigned to Service Btry. Probably as Tate’s relief but at present , amo officer. As usual, the Officers set up close to us (generator) prime object. We are right in the middle of a rice paddy. Muddy as Hell but Kim brought us straw and covered the muck so it won’t be so bad---still frozen outside.
Just heard the news seems like every one is going but us. Damned Chinamen are stubborn as Hell but can’t stand up against our Artillery. Ah! Yes, I had my little joke today. Found a Chinese gun with great big wheels on it so we have three Majors. I put a big wheel and a smaller one and a tiny one just outside their tents-- all wheels. Coffee came out and had a big laugh cause he had the big wheel. The others took a slow burn.
Say, how do you like the stationery? Was free in ’45, now it cost 25 cents. So what---we have to have it

Well, Sugar, I’ll be seeing you soon in my dreams cause I love you with all my heart and am still hoping to hold you and tell you all about it soon.
Your bill
