AUGUST 17
Up early and into Jamaica to
take the train out on the Island to
spend the day with the Hogans at
their cottage in Rocky Point. It
was a quietly peaceful day and I
enjoyed myself a great deal. They’re
such nice people!
When I came home there was lots
of birthday mail waiting for me,
which had accumulated due to
the mailman’s two-day holiday. There
was also a cute letter from Jimmy
but no mail from Bill. Though I
just heard from him Tuesday I’m
anxious to get a more recent letter
in hopes that he didn’t leave Europe
before the War Dept. order for men
previously scheduled to go direct to
the Pacific to come back to the
States instead. My fingers are
really crossed.
