October 6, 1943- Postcard

Dear Mom, Pop, Mary, Jerry and Mat,
   Didn't fly today because I was cadet officer of the day. It is a good thing because everyone said it was very bumpy today. I was up for two hours yesterday and certainly was tossed around plenty. First up then your down. The wind plays no favorites.
   Received a letter from Bobby yesterday. I imagine he will stay in Idaho for the winder.
  Still haven't issued us our winter greens and it's getting darn cold. I wonder what happened to the "sunny south". We get liberty to get a haircuts in town, we always have to wear our overcoats. Nobody ever gets colds though. Must be the clear air up here. That is about all. I have to go to drill in ten minutes.
