Jessica "Jess" Casta, Single Mother (Dorothy Cosentino), age 29 My Dearest Jess, Please forgive the long hiatus between correspondences, I have been very busy. Basic training was grueling, but I feel that I've become a better person for it. It is good to know that my cause is just. Each day that I wake up at the crack of morn, I remind myself of the righteousness of our cause, and I also think of you and our sweet little boy. How is he? Is he growing up strong? Do not let him forget me, please. It would break my heart to return only to be forgotten. Forever Yours, William --- My Dearest Wife, ---
