Dearest Betty

Letter # 100
May 19, 1951
Good Morning,

Well how’s my Sugar today? Raining all the time here. Had to make an amo run to Wonju night before last --- up all night. Last night the guns were going steady. The Laundrymen have been at it for three days now. Don’t see how they can keep on coming but if they insist on walking into artillery they sure won’t go far.

Saw Peele yesterday, he is a verry worried man. Doesn’t go for this sort of stuff at all. Can’t blame him either.

I suppose we will be moving again soon. Division Post Office moved yesterday which means we won’t be getting mail for a day or so. Happens every time they move.

Well, Darling, I don’t know anything new or interesting. Frank Cutting was recommended for 2nd Lt. Limited duty should make a good platoon leader.

Well, every one is getting up now and stirring around so better close this and get on with the day’s work. Hot cakes for breakfast but they never have syrup---just four. Ah!

Well everyone can’t cook like you.

All my love,

Bill
