Dear Donnie,
To start off with me don't know each other . That sounds sort of dumb but what can you expect from a friend of George Yarbac. He gave me your address so I didn't think yyou would mind if I wrote a friendly letter. To start of with I am from the fiar state of West Virginia, Ad believe it or not I wore shoes before I came to the army. If you will look at the map and find Weirtin you will know where I live. Next thing to tell you about is that I am about 6'3" and part my hair on the left side. My eyes are green and my skin is white,

I like tp dance anytime and play basketball in the winter. Swimming is my summer sport. The reason I jined the army was that I was curious. The curious tfor my own good. The next best reason for Dancing into the army was to get a collage education. I got a grand family and I haven't got a police record. My sisiter is beautiful and my brother is good looking. My dad is bud and my mother is small I took after my dad. I would sen you a picture but right now I am in hospital. I don;t think its serious but everytime I want to leave they tell me I have to stay a few days longer. I am going to try to get out tommorrow

Now that you know at least one perion in W. Va Can write I think I will close. Iff this letter sounds dumb, don't get alarmed I am having fun, so lond for now.
Love from An
Unknown Friend
