Dear Doris,

I am just fine the weather here is very beautiful last week or so. (in us two Bobs meeting each other you bet it sure does clear up a lot of things) I guess we all had a real surprise. Well we two Bobs have only seen each other just twice he's 5 area away and I last saw him the night before he went to the range since I have been so busy I haven't been able to write letters until the other night and to-night. We are all ready to pack our things when the order is given and there is now questions but what were going overseas very soon to some sort of hot weather and mesquito country. as we have had talks on Malira fever and have been issued our mesquito netting. No the only thing I got was the package and haven't gotton any thing since so there must be some more Beals some where we've yet to meet. You are very cunning the way you say your words especially about your age. You gave your self away by telling me I was a smart gusser. ha!ha! So you are sixteen I'm dead sure of it. But if you wish to see me as a civilian you'll have to let me know for sure & definite as you may receive a picture of me so send one of your self when you get one
