Handwritten message on the back reads, "Dearest Ethel, Just a few lines to let you know how I made out at the "San" office. My weight went up in two weeks from 127 1/2 to 132 1/2. Five pounds in two weeks is pretty good I think, don't you sweetheart? My temperature is up some yet. Orders are to continue resting. Am now down in the P.O. but anxious to get home to your letters which are there by now. Oh how dear you are to me my precious one. With love untold, your own, Hubby." No mailing address.
