Rothenburg October 19th 1942
Dear Beloved All !
I can now write to you and tell you, that after a very long train ride, I finally ended up here in Germany and I am now in Rothenburg, a town between Nürnberg and Würzburg in lower Bavaria. I give you my address and hope to get plenty of mail from you, Do not worry about the mail that had gone already to Russia, my Comrades will see to it, and do not worry about the sickness of me you must understand, I will not tell you yet, you know, Silence id Golden, the first thing I had was a glass of Bavarian Beer, I am glad that I am here and slept in a featherbed last night for the 1st time. But first I had a prolonged bath. Don’t send much parcels, we get good food. For now I will close, Greetings your Heinrich
