Mrs Richard L. Holt 1st Sgt R.L. Holt Fayetteville, Arkansas Btry "B" 936th FA BN RFD # 5 APO 464 % Post Master New York Ny. May 25, 1944 My Dearest One. Italy Honey this is going to be just another note. Maby one of these days I will get around to writing a letter. This leaves me still OK & I hope you and the youngsters are the same. I got your V-mail of the 12th which was your birthday yesterday. I wrote you a birthday letter some time ago, was in hopes you would get in time. Anyhow sweet I was thinking of you & wishing I could be with you. I havent written to anyone except you the last few days so you will have to pass along the news. The country we are going through at the present is very pretty. I believe the further north we go things will be even better. Well Sweet I have a few things to tend to so will close for now. So with all my love to the one & only girl in the world Your Hubby Le
