Guy Lee Tinder, Jr. correspondence
8 Apr [April] 53
Wed [Wednesday] 8: AM
Dearest Wife,
Boy I will try to get off a page or 2, we sure are busy unpack and pack all at the same time is
getting on my nerves. I had a good wk [week] last wk [week] this one is going to be just the opposite I
am afraid. Played Bingo Thur [Thursday] nite won again $107.50 only trouble was 2 other people
bingoed [sic] at the same time still I was proud of the $35 I got. Saving for that 15 day leave next month.
Went on a 3 day leave on Fri [Friday] caught up on some sleep mostly, took in the shows, and bowled
quite a bit to. Sure have been lucky lately hit 523, 526, 548, 545 for 3 games the last 4 times I have went
likes 2 pins fling a 187 per game ave [average], sure hope I stay that lucky. How’s our Boy? I still don’t
see how he could possibly talk any shows you what I know about babies. He sure looks good in the
pictures you sent. You did to are you trying to keep me from seeing what you look like? Well it won’t
do you much for in 3 more months or less I ought to be [page 2] home again. I cain’t tell you how happy
it will make me either. I got a few pic’s [pictures] thought I would sent along 2 of old P&C [packing &
crating] (Don’t know what new P&C [packing & crating] looks like yet) and 2 of the terrace café were
[where] I hang out quite a bit also 1 of me and the little fat man who owns the building we are in at
Present. (quite a combination huh? John fouled up when he took it got part of the camera case. So you
aren’t in a writing mood will you better get in one I practally [sic] never hear from you any more, course
I recon [sic] you are pretty busy. How’s that sewing schooling coming along? Imagine you buying
something to large for you?? (only joking honey) I always see how much bonus you make but never how
much money it is worth working for? Yep I knew the Ferbs had a wreck awful glad no one got hurt to
bad I want everyone there when I come home just like when I left. Babe give the Folks a ring and tell
them you heard from me and everything is fine except I am busy as the dickens will write you more and
write them soon as I get the chance. Tell all hello for me and bye for now. Got to run
See you
Jr Tinder
