Sunday

Dear Mom,
Boy, what a weekend. Oh, money, money, money. Man this town really cleans you out. I went into town with two of my roommates and three gals we got through the date bureau. We went to a little hot spot called the “Hi Hat.” We walk in the dump, $.75 cents please, a piece.” Well that started in. Between the three of us we polish off fifty bucks! Easy come, easy go.
We had a [?] town last night, so today we went to see “cover girl.” It’s very good, that Rita Hayworth is jumpin’.
I have guard duty tonight, and me with a beautiful hangover I go on at 1800 hundred for two hours, then at 2400, 0600 and 1200, 8 hours of hell. I have to wear white gloves and carry carbines, some fun, eh?
Well honey I’ve got eight Special Orders to learn so I’ll have to cut is short. I love you give my love to all.
Your Son Judd
