Friend Al : Well old pal just a line to let you know we are out of the danger zone and pretty near in port and I can’t tell you where we land at but everybody is hollering and the band’s playing and I guess the boys feels a whole lot better then when we was out there where the subs could get at us but between you and I Al I never thought about the subs all the way over only when I heard somebody else talk about them because I always figure that if they’s some danger of that kind the best way to do is just forget it and if its going to happen all right but what’s the use of worrying about it? But I suppose lots of people is built different and they have just got to worry all the while and they get scared stiff just thinking about what might happen but I always say nobody ever got fat worrying so why not just forget it and take things as they come.

Well old pal they’s to many sights to see so I will quit for this time.

Your pal, Jack .
