Jake received a ‘Dear John’ letter from his sweetheart, Emily. With shaking hands, he opened it to find heart-wrenching news: Emily had found comfort in another’s arms. Heartbroken and seeking cIosure, Jake turned to his fellow soldiers for support.

Gathering all the reminders of Emily’s affection, Jake decided to let go. In a poignant gesture, he penned a note to Emily, urging her to take back her Ietters and memories. Amidst the sea of heartbreak, Jake found a glimmer of humor. Along with Emily’s picture, he tossed in all the other photos he had collected from his buddies. With a mischievous grin, he penned a note to Emily, “Dear Emily, Sorry, but I can’t seem to recall who you are among these lovely ladies.

Please find your photo and send the rest back. Best wishes, Jake.” As he seaIed the envelope, Jake couldn’t help but chuckle at the absurdity of it all.
