Letter # 4

Apr 2, 1943
5 P.M.
Honey Chile;
Just leaving Shreveport La. We picked up several more cars of soldiers here so now we have quite a train. I guess from the looks of things we will be in either Texas or Louisiana and it is plenty hot right now so I don't like to think of next June & July. I changed my mind about mailing the letter because were getting close to camp. We pulled in after midnight at Camp Polk, Louisiana. We won't know our definite camp address yet for a few days so don't write till I send it. My cold is worse again this morning and may have to go to hospital yet. That seems to be about the first place rookies go. More later.
Your loving husband.
Norm
