Letter from Warren Johnston to Bobby [Letter 190]

142 Navy #3247 (Mil. Govt) FPO SF Tues. 2/20 8:20 am Darling, Last night I just had to get out and away from here - most of the men do every other night or so and it's a good idea - once a week suits me fine; this time it had been about 2 weeks. Joined a party of 7 or 8 going to an outside unit to the movies. It was a double feature neither picture of which was any good but I feel better this morning for the outing. The evenings (and mornings) are so lovely here - every time I go riding in a jeep at night I think of you and wish you were with me. Tel and I, several teachers and a truck have spent an hour this morning working fast to see what we could pick up in the military camp [?] that's being taken apart. 4x4's and 2x4's are at a premium (to be used for erecting the last of our much-needed tents up at school), and platforms built as flooring (and to be used for the kids to sit on at the outdoor movie) come next. It's a case of getting there before some other department does. Back to work - am on duty tonight so you really will get a decent letter for a change! I love you Warren
