"Your Anxious Old Man"

22 July 1957
"So you gave Timmy a haircut. I am certainly pleased that he did not cry while in the chair. I'll bet he really looks nice, doesn't he. I can't wait till I hear him talking a blue streak. I sure hope he remembers me when I see him. I bought him a barking dog and has eyes that light up. I think that I will have more fun playing with it than he will...I'll write to you from Pearl Harbor. That will be the last. I'll give you all the latest dope that I have at that time...I'll be seeing you very soon. Your Anxious Old Man"

Barking Dog Toy similar to the one Buss bought for Timmy.
