Dear Jimmy: - 

I received your letter yesterday so Im answering it now while Ive got the chance to. Dont forget that oil drum. Well things here are going along okay, we go out on boats every day and we have quite a time of it as for what we do I cant tell you that. Boy you should see this gang when they get seasick boy what a mess. I wish I was up there instead of here because its hot as hell & the insects pester hell out of us all the time. Well this is about all for now so dont forget to write soon.

Luck
Geo.
