Dear Parents and Grand Dad !
Yesterday I got the two letters from April 25 and 28th so I will answer today. We in a position and not on the advance and I have a bit more time to write. Please do not so much worry about me, whatever the future will bring for us will come, no matter, it is written in the books of history for each one of us. Today I celebrate my 22™ birthday in good health . K\Last year I was able to celebrate that day at home . I am glad to hear that you have almost done all the work and that you also make an improvement to the flower garden. Have you laid all these nice rocks in between? Yes, I welcome every parcel from you, so keep sending them. There is nothing new in the East, we live in hopes all the time , please send me a pipe , boot polish and sand paper.
Greetings Heinrich,
