Correspondence from T/Sgt. Edward Arnold to Ann Ruxer. A possible identification is Edward J. Arnold, 1917-2008 (https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/131677058/edward-j.-arnold). He's glad to have the trip over and be settled down. He was glad to find letters when he got back and liked her picture with the smile. He says she's still worrying about that one thing and she doesn't have to do so anymore. If she did indeed send him pictures from the wedding, they have not arrived but other letters have. He supposes she must have thought he stopped writing when he was on his way home since that trip was so long; it was equally long back to where he is now. He says he will finish the letter tomorrow since it's time for lights out. He begins again on Sunday and says he won't get to church because there is no priest at the post and they are quarantined and unable to go into town. She may be getting too good, going so often! He went almost every day on the boat coming over as there was nothing else to do except lay around and that got tiresome. He says that she was off work some time with her cold, and that he hated to hear that Jim (no further identification) got it, too. He was lucky to have been home when it was so cold and not to have come down with it. On his last day he thought he might have, but guesses he was just too tough. She has said she wishes he could get an instructor position at home, but he says he's an instructor where he is and that's just how it is going to be. They had everything changed around while he was gone.
