go over again because I have a score to settle. The sooner
I can kill a few yellow monkeys the better I will feel. I
am not trying to give you the impression that I want to be
a big hero, it is not that at all. I know it is a lot easier
to sit back in the states and let someone else do my fighting
for me but I can't feel right if I do. I think this time when
I go that it will be different, we won't be on the defensive
as we were before.

I am going to write Henry a letter after I finish this
one. You know Eva it has been quite some time since
we have all been together. Lets hope that it won't be
to far away when we can all be together again. I sure
would like to see Judy & Snooky, I guess I wouldn't know
either one they have probably grown so. I never have seen
Faisons kid, he sent me a picture of him though. Well Eva
I guess I had better close as I want to write Henry a
letter, by the way in moving I lost Velma & Faisons address
will you send them in your next letter? Tell Velma & Snooky
hello for me. Tell Harry I said he had better get planty of
practice with a rifle if he wants to go hunting with me when
the war is over, I am getting plenty of practice myself. Eva
my address now is, Corp. J. H. Spears, Co. "B", 1st Bn, 27th
Marines, 5th Div., F.M.F., Camp Pendleton, Oceanside, California
Write soon

Love
