Marci,
I hope my handwriting's not too pad. "Ma taught me when I wus young, that an spellin'. She always did make sure I had my letters. Never really saw the point until now, but I'm glad I can write to ya.
My folks hear from me every now and again' too, but it's different. Pa did his service, ya know, but just the year. He never saw no war or nothin'. I think talking to him about it would be different. It's not everyone who knows what it's like to be in battle. Can't believe they sent you out there when you were so young. I'm understanding more and more why people are so scared of that place you're at.
Sorry.
Guess I just wanted to tell someone, we're marchin' out tomorrow. The 44th is part of the first strike. Heading towards a town called...Selesia? They told us not to tell no one, but I figured it'd be fine. By the time you get this we'll already have the town anyway.
I told the others, Rho, Felix, and em'. I think they're all nervous, Rho is still injured, but I'm sure she's gonna find a way to come along.
Wish you were here. If I'm honest, I think I'm gonna need some protectin'.
I been in a few scraps with the boys in red before, and it wasn't somethin' I was really aimin' to do again. Anyway, sorry to complains, there's lots of folks who've gotten worse than me.
All things considered, I hope I won't be seein' you soon. If you get my meaning.
You deserve the break.
