Dear Darling Donna,

Well honey, here it is Wednesday already and I haven't received any letters from you as of yet but hope to soon. This sure one (hell/heck) of a camp, it's been raining here since Monday day and night and if you know how the infantry operates you'll know what I'm going through.

Love
Verne



PS. I went to Fort Worth Saturday and got a tattoo and does it ever look nice. It looks like this.
