August 31, 1944

Dear Folks:                                    31 Aug.
            Had some more rain and this grass is really growing. I have to cut it once every 5 days with the hand snips. Horridge and Hollis are on a weeks leave and went to a rest home. Got a another man in our hut. I got another hair cut from Lt. Christensen this week. Got some more pictures back and am writing Aunt Hattie and Aunt Nellie and sending them one each. Sgt. Neff had them printed for us and got several copies of each. Watt & I went over in his new wagon to get them.
                                    Yours truly,
                                                John
