Letter addressed to Mrs. Thelma Robinson Carey written by her son Carey. Carey starts the letter by telling his mother that he is alive and well. He doesn’t mention his specific locations but says that he is far from home and may return for seven days. He tells his mother that he doesn’t think that his brother Pat should go to the army since he and his brother were already enlisted. He tells his mother that he hopes that his wife Florence is doing well on her own. He mentions that he would like to send his mother money and writes about his brothers. Carey tells his mother that if Pat has to join the navy that he should be in the same squadron. Carey bids farewell and once again, tells his mother he wished he was back home.
