10 August 1958
"We arrived here yesterday and took off the flag personnel from the Hector so that they could be on their merry way to the States. They had a big sign on the side of the ship which read as follows: WHERE IN THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN? You see we were supposed to relieve them about two weeks ago...Gosh I sure do wish that my orders would come in pretty soon as I am getting tired of going out here. If and when they do come in I am not going to ride an airplane back...I don't want to take any chances of dropping in the ocean. I am going to try my darndest to ride a ship back...Well dear, is there anything you want from out here. I would like to buy you anything that you want as you deserve it...I only wish that I could be there with you. But I guess I am not the only person in this boat."
