Camp Pendleton Oceanside, Cal. June 19, 1944
[Letterhead: UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS]
Dear Eva, Well I have finally gotten time off so I can write a few letters. I have been plenty busy since I got back we are in the final states of our training and they are working me pretty hard. I had a pretty tiresome trip back. I don't know how long it will be before we shove off. It looks as though our side is doing allright doesn't it? Maybe it wont be too long before I can put on civilian clothes again.
We had a couple of earthquakes yesterday. I don't know if you read about them or not. The really give a funny feeling. It made a lot of people sick on their stomachs, kind of like seasickness

I guess that is another reason I don't like this California.
I hope you have been getting on alright. I really had a wonderful time when I was home. I guess by the time I get home again Judy will really be a big girl. Well Eva I hear the bugles blowing taps so I will have to close now will write again as soon as I get time
Love to all Jewell
