My Own Dear Jean,

I'm sorry that you find it hard to write now that I am so much further away. Are you sure that you are not letting the censor cramp your style? Please don't be foolish about that as hundreds of letters pass through their hands daily and personal items in a stray letter could not possibly attract their notice. It would be a pity to withhold anything from one another that would help us towards better understanding and love as there is always the chance that we will not meet again or will be sorely tried before we do. Don't think that I am a little too morbid Dear but after all war is war you know.
