The Desert of Wheat (2001)
“I inclose it. Hope you will wear it.
I'm very curious to see what your package contains. It hasn't arrived yet. All the mail comes late. That makes the boys sore.
The weather hasn't been so wet lately as when I last wrote, but it's colder. Believe me these tents are not steam-heated! But we grin and try to look happy. It's not the most cheerful thing to hear the old call in the morning and tumble out in the cold gray dawn. Say! I've got two blankets now. _Two!_ Just time for mess, then we hike ...down the road. I'm in for artillery now, I guess. The air service really fascinated me, but you can't have what you want in this business.
_Saturday_.--This letter will be in sections. No use sending you a little dab of news now and then. I'll write when I can, and mail when the letter assumes real proportions. Your package arrived and I was delighted. I think I slept better last night on your little pillow than any night since we were called out. My pillow before was your sleeveless jersey.
It's after three A.MoreLess
