and she ought to be pretty good buddies by now. You tell Mummy I said for her to be a good girl and you’ll be a good boy and I’ll be a good Daddy and Barbara is just naturally good.

Daddy is flying 51’s now—quite a bit the last few days and by the looks of things at present there will be quite a bit more. I’m am still at Seoul—perhaps not long until we have to leave and go back to Pusan.

I am going to say goodbye for tonight—Tell Mummy and Barbara I’ll write again soon

Love to all of you

Daddy.
