Aurora,

Behave girl! Lol, you're right I was smiling as I finished reading that letter. Got a few  of the guys hot and hit too! (Yes, I punch a few of the crazier ones! Gotta teach them respect!)
Jake took a vote and while they hope nothing, they figure you sleep in pj's of some kind.Seeing as how you wouldn't be that warm there and also cause what if you have to get up at night.
They have a bet going..it's 3 to 1 odds on nothing.Also they've got pj's, shorts/pants and a shirt and long john's(that one was Mike's idea..he thinks even sexy hermits would wear them..lol..and those are this words not mine!).

I'm hoping it's nothing..wink, but Jake says I can't tell you what I bet cause that's cheating.

I hope you realize even without pictures the guys are now gonna be thinking about you all the time..lol.. They're gonna be distracted and I'll have to do their work too!

Ouch! That comment got me smacked by Jake..He's laughing too though..Some of the guys here have wives and girlfriends at home but a few don't and I'm sure your picture and words are gonna keep them happy for awhile!

No more sharing with them! Your mine and I told them to get their own girl! No mail order husbands for you here, unless you wanna wait for me!

Actually that's a good idea! Ha! I'm telling the guys!

Now their all mad at me..lol...They say if you don't want me they can wait! Jerks!

More seriously, I'm glad Daniel is a good friend to you.I'm sorry to hear about his wife.They were lucky to have each other and you! I looked for him in the pictures.He does seem to be a tough old guy.I guess you'd better tell him if you plan to take me on! Lol

I can picture your day now in my mind.Sometimes when I'm on patrol I think about what we'd be doing if I was with you instead of here.Well, what you would normally be doing, I think if I was there we'd probably change a few things and you'd have to teach me a lot about how you live.I could do the laundry, but milking a goat is definitely something new! Lol

Yeah, we did end up going out that night.Jake got himself a girl and I ended up waiting in town for him for the evening.I'm finding it harder to connect with the woman around here.I kind of feel like they just want an evening of fun and to use me.

If I was still in my early 20's I'd be all in for that but I think I'm getting old.Wartime does that.Some guys need the reminder they are still here and alive.I want more then just a roll in the hay.Maybe even a wife and kids someday...

Guess you were jealous for no reason huh? Were you really? I thought of you while we were out.I wish you could've been there.Crazy huh? I wonder how the night would've when then...

Meh, that's getting weird?Maybe.I think I'm getting more involved then I meant to with this letter stuff. Your last letter really made me think. I think about you all the time now.Day and night.Jake says I'm losing it.I think he's right.Maybe this war is too long..maybe I'm done.

Still as I lay here writing this letter with your picture staring at me I feel like maybe this is a chance of something else happening.Maybe...

Confused, but hugs anyways!
Ryan

Ps.It's not just the guys thinking about what you wear to bed either.wink!
Oh, and we are men..we walk around naked! Lol
