Looks like Edmund is working hard, staying up late, and still there is more to do. He has barely even had time to eat, only grabbing things "on the fly" (Pun intended? Probably!) Antonetta and Rose provide the remedy, as they always do! Click on "comments" above to add your thoughts and/or memories! Feb, 13, 1944
Dear Mom and Rose, Lately I have been kept very busy, which is why I haven’t written sooner. The last week especially, has given me very little, if any, time to myself. We have been making preparations to move, crating and loading supplies. The interference of rain forced us to slow up and threw us behind schedule, so we had to work day and night to catch up. Yesterday, after working all day, I had to resume after evening chow, and continued until 2:00 AM. I slept this morning, and worked the afternoon. We caught up pretty good otherwise I’d be on the job to-nite, again. I just finished washing a pile of clothes, and I’m glad it’s done. Whew! I don’t know where you gals get the patience to wash and wash. Yesterday, the package of salami, preserves, candy and cigarettes arrived and it was more than welcome. I needed some smokes, but didn’t get a chance to buy any, so they came as a life saver. Also, as we have been eating “on the fly”, sandwiches of salami and preserves sure solved the chow problem for my buddies and me. Thank you, Mom and sister Rose, for a very thoughtful and delightful package. We’ll be leaving in a few days, when I can’t say, so continue addressing me here until I notify you of the change. Hoping you are all in the best of health. I’ll say “so long” until next time. Regards to brothers and sisters. Loving son, Ed
