Dearest Betty

Letter # 94
May 5th, 1951
Hi, Toots,


Well it is raining today and of course turned cold. Good thing I bathed yesterday so today I have been reading. Have to paint signs for Maj. Coffee some time this afternoon.

Yes, the stories on the radio are dillers. We hear radio China---they have POW’s on every night from 6:45 to 7:00. You can tell each one is dictated. All rave about the useless killing of women & children and ask your Congressmen to get all troops out of Korea. Well we have lost contact with the “Chinks” or “Laundrymen” as we call them and that ain’t good. We try & know their location but at times thousands of them just drop out of sight then turn up at the darndest places & times.

Well, Sugar better stop now & paint that sign.
