- Scope and content:
The folder contains personal letters from Don to his wife Portia detailing his day to day life overseas, including his journey to the air base in England and his being assigned to the 44th unit. He spends time discussing financials such as the selling of their car and the money orders he plans on sending back to Florida with her as well as asking for supplies he sorely needs, including cothes for the winter months. He describes her letters as the only thing keeping his morale up and begs her to keep writing, and inquires after their son while asking for as many photographs of them as she can send.
