Dearest Mother, Daddy and Baby,
Just had several pieces of the most delicious pineapple. It must've been at least a foot long! Well, gee, there really isn't much to write about this time as I haven't received any mail since I last wrote you.
I'm enclosing those pictures I promised you. It is of Virginia and me taken at 17 Mile Beach.
What I need today is a pair of crutches. Guess I really played a hard game of tennis last night. But I didn't expect to be this sore. However, that's not going to stop me from playing more.
It rained quite hard this evening which isn't at all unusual. This finds me on duty at the desk in the barracks just wishing for 10 o'clock to roll around so I can hit the sack.
Well, for now I'll sign off with loads of love and kisses to you all from your loving Char.
