Hi Ma,

Things are about the same down here, hot as hell. What is Al's address? I want to drop him a line.

I have been going up to Virginia every week trying to get my plane down here but so far, my luck has been the same, very poor. I have been doing a little flying.

I had to go through the infiltration course. You know, where they fire the bullets over your head and if you pick up your head or your can, you get hit.

I guess I better find some place to cool off. The have a swell pool that Junior and I plan to try out tonight.

As Ever

Charles
