Dearest Dad Mother Bro & Sis.

Well here I am once more this time I didn't receive a letter or anything like that a few days ago I had the misfortune of being in the way of a ----- in other word's I was in the right place at the wrong time, but everything is O.K. Thought which I'm thanking God for. I got it in the thigh above the right knee about 1: above the knee it was very small but my knee happen to be bent and it didn't do it any good, however, I got back and operated on a full almost 100% now. Funny I was a bit scared as I had given myself to God and when I was hit I was saying my rosary so I guess you can see that God saved me and protected me and now as long as I live God alone shall live in my soul say the rosary every night at home. Good alone is the one who'll stop this War.

Well seeing I'm running out of paper I'll try and write again tomorrow. Hope you are all well and best of luck health to all and don't any of our work to hard. Dad and Mother take care of yourselves, eh! Please and don't worry. Please as I'm O.K. Bro Sis I'm hoping are all good and well and happy. Hello to Duke and Ants & Uncle etc. Also tell Denise who loves you very very much.
