honey please don't cry
you know i must go
my number's been called
duty calls i must
go i don't want to

leave you

behind dry your tears
or i'll start crying
i'll write ev'ry day
i will let you know
when i'm coming home

hello, dear sweetheart
a brief note before
duty i miss you
thanks for the care
package the cookies

were good

shared 'em with the guys
thanks for the picture
of little leon
he's sure growin' fast
looks like his old man

a few words before
i have to go on
duty it's my watch
how i want this war
to be over done

right now

i miss you so much
more than you'll ever
know i love you in
only three short weeks
i'll be coming home

mrs. leon j. smith...
the united states army
regrets to inform you...
