Thus, it is not unlikely that I will see you in the fairly near future. I don't know exactly what procedure I shall follow; that is, whether I shall have my draft board transferred here, be inducted from here, and go home for the furlough - or simply let things stand as they are and be inducted from Iowa. I rather think the latter might be better; my boss told me yesterday that I didn't have to feel I was obliged to work until the last minute or anything of that sort but rather that I could begin making plans for departure right now. I wrote to my draft board yesterday and asked if they could tell me when I would receive induction orders; what course I pursue will probably depend to a large extent or what I hear from them. If possible, I would sort of like to stop work for a while before I plunge into the Army; I feel somewhat worn out. Well, I must close now. Write soon. Love, Joseph
