This V-Mail letter was in the same envelope as the previous posting. I do not have any of the letters that Paul wrote while in the hospital. I assume these letters have been lost. As of this post, I have no information on why Paul was in the hospital. I am reading these letters as I post them, so maybe in a future letter there will be some enlightenment.

I'll bet receiving a recording was quite a treat for a serviceman. I wonder if it survived and is in the back of someone's closet somewhere??
