Communications

I have received the latest email from Lt. He expended great effort to tell me nothing.

"Dear Mei, I can't tell you where we are at or where we are going or when we will be home. Things are going well. I look forward to coming home. Lt" His version was much more wordy (214 words) and I am too lazy to write it all. I suppose I could copy/paste. No, there is no cause for you to be bored too.

We will require time to decide what is an acceptable email. I know there is often very limited time when underway. But I do believe my version would be faster to write. "Dear Mei, I am well. I think of you and Little One often. I love you. Lt." It tells me what I wish to hear; he loves me and is well. I already know he is unable to tell me of ship business. What is the purpose of telling me he can not tell me?

I suppose I should be happy he writes at all.
