March 29, 1944 Washington, D.C.

Hello Mom,

Well, I'm feeling pretty good today. Yesterday evening I went to bed around 6:00, and the girl I've been seeing called me up around 9:00. She wanted to know why I haven't been up to see her in a while. We talked a while, and then I went back to bed and slept until 7:00 this morning. So, I have caught up on my sleep. When I woke up, the snow was pouring down, but it has turned to rain now.

I don't guess I'll be doing any farming this year. I don't guess Dad will kill the pig until next winter, will he. It should pretty big by then.

I hope Jewell does get that job at Davis, because it would be a whole lot better for her. But, that will make it hard on Betty staying in Charleston by herself. Betty never did answer the last letter I sent her. I guess she is working all the time.

I am going to go down and get a carton of cigarettes. They are giving us all a carton. I haven't done much all day except go to class for an hour and a half. I have to go on guard duty at 12:00 tonight.

I'll close for now. Tell the family I said hello.

Your son,

Pedue
