Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "February 24, 1942

Dear Dad:

Received your letter with the enclosed recommendations and they certainly were fine. I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate what you have done for me, and how much I appreciate those fine letters. As you probably know by this time I am not a very demonstrative person and anything I attempt to say is so inadequate as to how I feel.

You realize that my time is so limited-that is time that I can call my own-that an occasional letter is the best I can do. In the event that I am a little late in acknowledging the splendid letters, written by Horace, Cal and Pete, please thank them for me and remind them that I’ll never forget it.

I had some pictures taken the day before Black Sunday, in other words"
