dc.description.transcription5-25-43Dear Folks,This will have to be short as I am writing “on company time.” Well, I am home from the hospital and feeling fine. I’m a little weak in the knees but outside of that I am O.K.That feared change in rooms, room matesetc. took place. I don’t know too much about my new “buddies” but will let you know what I know in my next letter.I got my annual and it was in fine shape. I got cheated in all of those pictures showing intermural sports. I was just out of nearly all of them. Iris, I don’t want you to have anything to do with that Doris girl any more, she is absolutely crazy. “Honey, if you want stamps here they are!” Bull. I’ll write in a couple of days. Love, Joe (over)I just thought of something else. Don’t write me any letters or send me any thing untill you hear of my new address. Iris, you have a birthday present and a poem? on the way. Love again,Joseph W.
