Letter from Warren Johnston to Bobby [Letter 96]

#48 Tues 14 Nov 9:40 pm My darling Just 20 minutes to lights out, five of which I must spend finding my way inside the mosquito netting, after undressing and into bed. - I have moved from the tent I was in at first to the office where I work, since I have replaced Thalaksson (relieved to return to Hawaii) as liaison officer with the Koreans. Reifsnider specifically in charge of the Japanese civilians, also retains final authority for both groups but I'll probably work gradually with various filing job (I won't mention that again, either; too small a [?] to waste so many words on). Ten minutes. I'm up later than usual - just felt like going to a movie tonight and there was a decent one for a change - “The Invaders,” with Leslie Howard and Raymond Massey. Usually movies here are over by a little after 8 ‘clock (since evening chow is at 5, and they start at 6:15) but there was trouble getting started and later on about 20 minutes of pouring rain during which they had to stop the show. (I just sat complacently in the rain with my voluminous G.T. sou'wester and a sunhat - my glasses got a little wet and that’s all. Goodnight, darling, and bless you - All my love Warren
