Dear Folks,

We got off of drill this morning to get paid and I have a few minutes extra.

All the fellows are planning a big weekend. I think most of them including myself are going to sleep the larger part of the 25 hrs. I called Mrs. Perkins last night and she wrote to meet us tomorrow afternoon. Sam and I are going together so I told her he would be with me. She didn’t seem to mind. We are suppose to get our grades one of these days. It is recall the first time in my life I am not much worried about them and I haven’t done much studying. Has Karen learned how to chin herself yet?

Tom.
