Dear Bumblebee,

Sorry, Bea, but it was just about as top secret an operation as it could get. Yeah, we did know about it. And the Commandos, Steve and I were there. It really was a big deal, Bea. The papers were right about that. And it was bad. I won't sugarcoat that. But it was necessary.

In a strange sort of way, it also felt good. Being a part of it. Part of me has felt a bit guilty about not being there with the rest of our boys on the Front while we're off doing our own thing, especially when it is so bad out there. What we're doing with the Commandos is important, but sometimes it feels like we're fighting a completely different war and that we should be fighting alongside the rest of our troops. And I suppose we are, in a way. I don't know if you understand what I mean, but that's the best way I can think of to explain it. It's just a feeling, really. So it felt like we were doing a good thing for our side too, by joining up with the reg. troops. You should have seen how happy they were to see us, Bea. Especially seeing Steve. I swear, Bea, it was incredible to see the way their morale improved just from seeing Captain America getting onto the boats with them.

You had better not be thinking of getting married just yet. I don't want to miss my baby sister's wedding, Bea, so you're going to have to wait until the War's over, okay? And no kissing until then, either. Especially since Jack and I won't be there to make sure your beau is behaving himself. Although, if Gordy shipping out with Jack...

Behave yourself, Bumblebee! And make sure you get Jack and Gordy out dancing again before they ship out! Have a dance for me. Maybe a fast one.

Love,

Bucky

P.S. He says he did send you a letter, but Steve says thank you again for your letter and your gift. They really made his day. Especially the new notebook. His old one was nearly full. I think he may even have sent you a sketch. Nowhere near as good as the ones I sent you, but they're not bad. Don't tell him I said that, though. It'll just hurt his feelings! Haha!

Give Mom and Jack my love.
