Carroll Steinbeck letters to his parents, November-December 1943

Carroll Steinbeck to Alfred and Vira Steinbeck Page 2

I think I told you that you could go ahead and order the ring. Anyway, if I didn't I'm giving you the go ahead signal now.
Hope those pictures got through ok. I sent a set of the same ones to both Ken and Kay.
I had that big picture of Kay sitting out the other day when the inspecting officer cam around and he noticed it the first thing. He wondered whose girl it was and I told him mine. He said for me to keep up the good work. How about that?
I got a box of candy bars from Helen Jensen last week. Sent them to keep my sweet tooth in shape this xmas. I'd bet Ken gets a box one of these days.
A special train may not run for us to get home on so we may have a heck of a time getting a reservation now. A bunch of us are going to see about it tomorrow.
Just went in and help a guy eat a cake. That knife you sent out sure comes in handy alot around here.
Its past bed time and I'm plenty tired so I tuck myself into bed. Night now.
Love
Carroll
