Ma those lousey bastards haven't given her a penny and Ma I feel like a heel writing asking for money, but when I made out my allotment on 'Guadalcanal' they told me she would get paid in full, from last June up until Nov. 1st. thats when it took affect and she hasn't got a damn cent from them. Well someones going to be sorry and I mean it, I'll find out whats the trouble or I'll kill someone." A unique look at a serviceman's frustrations with the military as he tries to assist his loved ones back home. Leighton Winthrop Bailey (1921-1985) grew up in Abington, Massachusetts. His father, Seth O. Bailey, was a veteran of World War I. Shortly after the U.S. entered World War II, Leighton Bailey enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in January 1942. A few months later, he married Helen Holbrook on March 17. During the war, Bailey fought at Guadalcanal, being wounded there twice. This letter was written following his second injury in September 1942 when he was placed on a hospital ship and sent to Mare Island Naval Hospital in November. Bailey was released from military service in August 1943. After returning home, he became a truck driver. Leighton Bailey died June 18, 1985 and is buried in Abington. Signed.
