Winfred composes his weekly Sunday afternoon letter to the Folks (letter date is for Monday); got back late last night because the plane he was on was forced down over Hammer Field due to mechanical failure; has been staying on the base but occasionally dates a WAC from Texas; wishes to hear from Cliff who has been getting around some lately; still has some checking out to do in flight before getting out of there; has enclosed a clipping about the ARTU school there; heard that Pat (Merrill) has landed a guy – never knew one quite like her; tells his sister Patsy he read her letter and asks about her bicycling; then closes asking about Jim’ s (unknown) new hat.
