Dear Mom
Well I got back O.K. It took me 3 cars to do it but I landed up right at the Exhibition Grounds at about 10 to 12 so I didn't do so bad.
Well all those who were on week-end passes are on fatigue duty to-day so I'm putting out clean sheets and taking dirty ones away. It certainly is a soft job. I quit at 11 o'clock this morning and I go back at 1:15 and expect to be finished by 2:00.
If you come down on Wed. I can meet you at 5:00. I am through at 4:30 but I'll have to get washed and dressed so you can come to the visitors lounge and ask for me and they'll hunt me up. You can find the visitors lounge O.K. there is a sign stuck out to tell you or you can ask one of the guards.
Well drop me a line so I'll know if you are coming early or if you are coming at all.
Well I guess there is nothing more just now.
Your loving son
