Dear Jean, 
     I received your letter a couple of days ago but am just getting a chance to answer it. 
     I had a letter from Malc. a couple of days ago also. he says he likes it fine but in six years I think he will change his mind. But I hope he keeps on liking it. He is going to try take up Pharmacy if he can get a school but if he don't he still might be able to get it aboard ship. If he comes around here I might be able to help him get what he wants. I hope Go. Anderson and Nelson like it too.

Dear Jean, 
     Well, I am in the navy now. I like it fine so far and this is to be the hardest part of the six years a man has. 
     Well, how is all with you? How do you like your job now?

Dear Jean: 
     I guess its about time I was answering your letter. I received it several days ago but am kind of slow at answering.
     No Jeanette hasn't written to me for quite a long time. I didn't even know she was in Minneapolis. Is she going to stay down there? I hope so.
