#245 Navy #3247 (Mil. Govt) FPO San Francisco Friday 8 June 7:45 am My dearest darling, Last night I took 4 unanswered letters and a pad of paper with me when I went up to supervise the movie, thinking that if the picture was dull I could write you in the projection booth (sometime I'll draw a picture of it) - but it was a busy evening. The movie we had drawn was a poor one; so I shuttled back and forth between school and military movie areas to bring a Technicolor picture with Carmen Miranda that was also being shown to military personnel. “Something For the Boys,” based on the stage show. Unfortunately, what with a couple of shorts, the program would have been so long that we had to cut the color picture at the half; so we had an evening of a short or two, and two half-pictures. We'll show “Something for the Boys” in full, however, when it's been around the island and it comes our turn to get it. Cute line that made me surprised that no one had ever thought of it before - [pg 2] “(If you keep on making like that). So help me, I'll kiss you!” She: “So kiss me - I'll help you.” Yesterday Arthur [Kruckeberg?] (remember him? Was in my class at Boulder and at that party we had for them; close friends of the Davises) drifted in out of nowhere, or rather from a command ship in which, as a member of the Intelligence staff, he's on his way to somewhere that he couldn't tell me. He asked about you, and about didn't we have an offspring? so of course I told him about Wendy. The Kruckebergs have 2 little girls now. He was here only half an hour and I spent most of that time showing him around the school and asking about other Boulder men. John Congleton recalled this morning that of the five men in our class at that time, he, Arthur, Evan Davis, myself and Al Karr (Joy's husband) - only the last-named has not been here! Curious circumstance [?] Arthur was sorry to miss Evan, must have just missed him in Hawaii. By now- I love you Warren John [?] by the way, was not at our party that day - the only unmarried man [?] the [?] had a date somewhere else.
