Dear Mr. Jacobs,

Feeling fine and hope you, your dad, and the entire staff are likewise. Now on another new assignment. This time with the Finance Division of Allied Military Govt. Located in the office of the Chief Accountant, and boy I’m doing accounting to the extent that I see figures in my sleep. Incidentally I’m in a beautiful city somewhere in Sicily, and tell Prof Richards that there are many beautiful gals here, but very few cigars. Manny Vierra (a class or 2 before me) is in the Labor Division here, so Bryant is still carrying on famously. John Daugherty from Fall River is with [the] 15th Army Group in the Intelligence Section. If I locate a few more Bryant grads, I’ll hold a reunion. What’s new around Bryant and Providence?

During my tour of duty in Africa, I had the good fortune of being able to visit every city of consequence, and when next I see you, you can ne assured of many lengthy tales. Give my regards to your dad, Mr. Allen, Ripley, Profs. Richards, Vinal, Gulski, Naylor, Applebee and the rest.

Very Sincerely yours,
Nat Guy

Dear Mr. Jacobs,

Hope this letter finds you and your staff in the finest of health. I am no longer with II[?] Corps as you can readily see on my address. However I am still with my old boss who was given the assignment as Finance Officer here and brought me along with him. My work is very satisfying and tell Prof. Vinal that I’m very glad that I paid close attention to his lectures. Censorship regulations make it quite difficult to write an informative letter but I’ll certainly have many, many yarns to spin when I return. I received mail from Carlos last week, and at the time of his letter he was in the finals of some tennis tournament in Panama. When you are in New Bedford give my folks a buzz on the telephone as I know they would enjoy hearing from you. Please [ignore?] the lack of paragraphing but line space forces me to use but on paragraph for my letters. Give my regards to Mr. Allen, Profs. Richards, Vinal, [indecipherable], Appleby, your [indecipherable] friend of course.

Good Bye.
Sincerely yours,
Nat
