Guy Lee Tinder, Jr. correspondence
Sept [September] 11, 1951
Tue [Tuesday] Eve [evening] 8:30 PM
Hello Agnes
How’s my gal making out this week. Fine and dandy I hope. As for myself fair, or about a good
as could be expected. Just received your wonderful letter so will answer right back. We got off early
today so I have everything about rounded up except for shaving, shower, and shining shoes. I didn’t
look for any letters today was really glad to have gotten one. Darling I am getting that marrying fever
again I only hope it lasts long enough this time because I know I love you enough to really be happy if we
all tied up. Honestly I want to get married but when it really comes down to the fact I haven’t got the
courage. I suppose that may sound silly to you but it is the truth. I must admit I was disappointed in you
this past weekend. Although there have been a lot of times when I was much worse so I didn’t get mad
like I usually would have. I love you much more when you are not acting that way. I have told you many
times that no girl could ever take your place. Someday maybe you will believe me. Real soon I hope.
[page 2] I don’t suppose that I will get a pass this weekend, I am really looking forward to the next one
thou [sic]. Some say we leave next Sun [Sunday] eve [evening] at 2 to go on bouviac [bivouac], some say
not till Mon [Monday] so I don’t know when it will be. I only hope it is dry that week. Just 2 more weeks
after this one then maybe this old Army life will be a little easier. We didn’t have a bit of trouble coming
back got here around 10:00 and only drove between 50-55 also stopped in Waynesville for about half
hour bought me a few things at the Army store then came on in to camp. Tell the folks hello for me. I
suppose Calvin is having quite a bit of fun in football. It is hard to believe that school has started again.
Well Angel think I will close and write Mary K then hit the sack. Don’t do anything that I wouldn’t like
will write again this weekend. Love for now
Jr Tinder
P.S. Thanks loads for the papers and candy have already eaten half the box
Bye
Jr
Would send those pictures but they are to[o] awful only I get to see them.
