On my bed
Sunday morning

Dear Folks,
I'm still here, plugging away and having loads of fun in spite of all. We have the grandest bunch in our squadon; we will be sorry to separate. It was bad enough when we came back to the barracks last Friday and found about 6 empty beds. The screening board met Thursday and about a dozen were called in. I didn't have to. Then on Friday, those who didn't make it were called out of class, and by the time we got back from class, they were packed and gone. Next week is the murder board, but we aren't letting it get us down. Some Company's do nothing but told about failing until they have themselves worked into a terrific tension. We relax and have as much fun as possible. We charge anyone in our squadron a nickle if she mentions the words "murder board." We're going to party with the proceeds. With all our silliness,
