I
don
t
know
.
How
was
your
mail
when
I
was
gone
?
You
heard
from
Loretta
?
"
Loretta
was
Clay
s
girl
.
They
intended
to
get
married
at
their
earliest
convenience
.
She
wrote
to
him
fairly
regularly
,
from
a
paradise
of
triple
exclamation
points
and
inaccurate
observations
.
All
through
the
war
,
Clay
had
read
all
Loretta
s
letters
aloud
to
X
,
however
intimate
they
were
in
fact
,
the
more
intimate
,
the
better
.
It
was
his
custom
,
after
each
reading
,
to
ask
X
to
plot
out
or
pad
out
the
letter
of
reply
,
or
to
insert
a
few
impressive
words
in
French
or
German
.
"
Yeah
,
I
had
a
letter
from
her
yesterday
.
Down
in
my
room
.
Show
it
to
ya
later
,
"
Clay
said
,
listlessly
.
He
sat
up
straight
on
the
edge
of
the
bed
,
held
his
breath
,
and
issued
a
long
,
resonant
belch
.
Looking
just
semi
-
pleased
with
the
achievement
,
he
relaxed
again
.
"
Her
goddam
brother
s
gettin
outa
the
Navy
on
account
of
his
hip
,
"
he
said
.
"
He
s
got
this
hip
,
the
bastard
.

He
sat
up
again
and
tried
for
another
belch
,
but
with
below
-
par
results
.
A
jot
of
alertness
came
into
his
face
.
"
Hey
.
Before
I
forget
.
We
gotta
get
up
at
five
tomorrow
and
drive
to
Hamburg
or
someplace
.
Pick
up
Eisenhower
jackets
for
the
whole
detachment
.
"
X
,
regarding
him
hostilely
,
stated
that
he
didn
t
want
an
Eisenhower
jacket
.
Clay
looked
surprised
,
almost
a
trifle
hurt
.
"
Oh
,
they
re
good
!
They
look
good
.
How
come
?
"
"
No
reason
.
Why
do
we
have
to
get
up
at
five
?
The
war
s
over
,
for
God
s
sake
.

I
don
t
know
we
gotta
get
back
before
lunch
.
They
got
some
new
forms
in
we
gotta
fill
out
before
lunch
.
.
.
.
I
asked
Bulling
how
come
we
couldn
t
fill
em
out
tonight
he
s
got
the
goddam
forms
right
on
his
desk
.
He
don
t
want
to
open
the
envelopes
yet
,
the
son
of
a
bitch
.
"
The
two
sat
quiet
for
a
moment
,
hating
Bulling
.
Clay
suddenly
looked
at
X
with
new
-
higher
-
interest
than
before
.
"
Hey
,
"
he
said
.
"
Did
you
know
the
goddam
side
of
your
face
is
jumping
all
over
the
place
?
"
X
said
he
knew
all
about
it
,
and
covered
his
tic
with
his
hand
.
