Happy Birthday

24 September 1952
"Well Happy Birthday.I hope that you got the card that I sent you from Scotland...It had the picture of the Queen and her husband. Don't you wish that you were a queen. Well I guess that you are a queen to me...I wish that you could go along with me over in England and see some of the sights...Some of the boys are going to London on a three day leave. Well I would just as soon wait till I get back there to take my leave. Then I can have you with me."
Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip Coronation 1952
