Dear Father Mother-

I just received your letter today sure was glad to hear from you all. That was the first letter I had had from home for some time. I also had a letter from Ray. I suppose you have had some bad weather there haven't you? Sure is fine here now. I am on guard today that is about all we do we drill some you know that just gives a fellow good exercise. I don't know how long we will be here it may not be long until we get home. I guess they had some time there when they heard the war was over. We sure were a proud bunch. We were all lined up ready to go over the top again when the order came in not to advance. Well I did not see as much fighting as some of the boys, but believe me I certainly did see enough. I sure did have a close (call) when a piece of shrapnel passed through my overcoat collar. Yes I received Bob Reeds letter. Mother I sure do wish I was there to help eat that good butter. I received the Xmas box Jan. 7 the candy sure was fine. I sure would of liked to have been with you all at Xmas. I haven't saw Orval Ulman for some time. He is the only Miller Co. boy I have saw since I came across. I suppose there are several of the boys coming home. Well this will be all for this time. Hoping to see you all soon.

Your loving son
