In part: "...I am thankful that I have no tendency to become over excited or frightened by realities - of war or peace...Your letters also give me a nice lift, of a higher order than even a good cocktail...I wonder if you could and would do a little shopping for me? The wife of one of my civilian technicians (radio) has been isolated in Free China for three years and says she needs some clothing...I am inclosing a list of the things she need most urgently...be sure to bill me as they have plenty of money...". Fine condition .
