June 27, 1971 – My Panties Are Wet Just Writing This Letter

In this letter, written on June 27, 1971, Captain Sarah Allgood isn’t shy about how much she misses her husband — or how badly she wants him.
It’s raw. It’s funny. It’s incredibly personal. And it’s real.
From splitting headaches to bridge games, tacos, teenage neighbors asking awkward questions, and heartfelt longing, Sarah’s voice leaps off the page. She jokes about how hard it was to go four pages without writing “I love you.” She remembers the way Dick kissed her eyes and hair. And yes — she tells him her panties are wet just writing the letter. This one is pure, unfiltered Sarah: sexual, playful, deeply affectionate… and just trying to make it through another weekend alone while pregnant during wartime.
Her humor and horniness live right alongside her heartbreak.
And maybe most incredible of all — this letter, like every one she wrote, somehow survived. My dad saved it in Vietnam, brought it back to the States, and it sat quietly in a storage unit in Big Sky, Montana for decades — through freezing winters and everything else life threw at us — until I found it. Dry. Intact. Waiting.
Now I get to read it to you.
