Writing from San Antonio, Texas—just outside Lackland Air Force Base where she works as a military nurse—Sarah Allgood pours her heart out to her husband, Dick, who is deployed in Vietnam. Now newly pregnant, she writes with equal parts love, exhaustion, and fierce honesty.

She shares the first doctor’s advice since confirming the pregnancy, vents about a dinner with a troubled couple, and closes with a vivid scene of herself by the pool, letter in hand, missing him deeply.

This letter isn’t just a love note.

It’s a window into military life at home, into the early days of motherhood,

and into what it means to hold on to connection across continents.

Listen in as their real-life love story unfolds—one page at a time.
