Written on USS Kennison stationary

Dear folks,

How are y’all. I am pretty good. We got In Saturday noon and docked at the Bremerton Naval yard. Nobody got sick on the way up but it wasn’t very rough. Bremerton isn’t as very big town. Haven’t been to Seattle yet but will go over there on the ferry on my first day off. Saw the show High Sierra last night. Cost $.50. Went to a dance at a place they call Craven Center. A Navy recruiter recreation center here. Did that guy bring the five dollar motorcycle money? Tell me in the next letter. The address here something would be Puget Sound Naval Station, Bremerton Washington. USS Heywood. I just got through eating some ice cream for something sake. They have shows on the different ships here. Still beating up the Chiefs. We’re liable to go to San Diego within a couple of weeks.

Well, I guess that’s all for the time being.

Love Don XXXXOOO. PS how are the measles?
