387 September 4 - Tuesday - noon My Darling Sweety: Wasn't at all satisfied with my letter to you last night - so many things as I wanted to tell you, but they just wouldn't put down on paper. Have some news on the Boulder men - met Dana, and she said that the Corrigans had stopped by on Saturday to say goodby - George has left for Iwo Jima, and someone else has orders for [Ulithi?]. John White has orders out - in fact just 3 of the men are left, and they are awaiting orders. Sorry I haven't anymore of the details. Don't know whether the whole Navy MG pool has been cleared out or not, but when Helen went over to the [pg 2] Presidio the other night she didn't see anything but Army. I guess all these replacements won't effect you, but I certainly hop you won't be completely bypassed, and have to wait for enough points or something. I wish I could have found out more, because now I feel sort of up in the air. No doubt tho, where the 5 replacements reach Tinian you will be able to fill in the gaps for me. This morning I mailed the pajamas and received yours - they had arrived Saturday afternoon, but I wasn't able to get them because the Post Office was closed. Til later darling - I love you - Bobby
