Dear Douglas:
My first job Monday morning is to put out the two flags and the next is to get off a letter to you. The last one we received from you was most welcome, picturing you sitting in the ward room with some of the other officers and the sketch. I think there is one letter of your series missing but as we have already received two of them out of order, it will probably show up in the near future. According to my reckoning you should be nearing the home port if not already in and I shall not be at all surprised to hear from you any day. Let us know by telephone as soon as you can so there will be no chance of our being elsewhere.
