Rating: K (Suitable for ages 13 and above)
Disclaimers: With the exception of Malachi Reddington and Cornelius Noonan, all names given are fictional. The mentioned characters Tony Carpullo, Bill Meinertzhagen, and Captain McCawley were RP characters belonging to others. All other named characters are mine.
Summary: The incomplete collection of letters exchanged between a US soldier and his friends and family. 15/23
Author's Note:  These letters were originally posted as supporting extras on a WWII RP. They were fun to write and I might add one or two more in future.

10th November 1942

Dearest Kat,

This is just a short letter. Danny and I made it through the landings OK. It was a long day and the enemy gave us some fight. We lost some guys killed. One was a good mate. But we beat them in the end so may be it's worth it.

We got mail in yesterday. There's about four letters and a package from you. I ain't been able to read 'em like they deserve yet but I'm off sentry duty tonight at last so I can read them then and answer them tomorrow probably. I hope every thing I sent a few days ago gets to you OK.

I got to go back on duty now. It's still busy and our new company commander says we'll probably be busy for a while till things calm down here. I hope you and Mikey and every one are all right.


Love always,

Joe
