We can just wait and pray for the day our boys are all home. My last letter is still Dec. 31st but from the tone of his latters, he seemed in excellent spirits said they were all fine. I hop e you have heared or will soon and shall appriciate any information you mauy receive abou thtese boys. let's contineu to hope and pray that they will soon be home with us again.
