Rothenburg January 16th 1943 Dear Parents and Grand Dad !

Time to write a short letter again, but I have not many interest in the writing, One is happy when another day is over or a night. I am not really looking forward to be moving soon from here, because I think different then when I left here in 1941 I wrote a long Letter to Major Lange recently, and he has answered me and he said he will try to get me out of the Army so you know what to do in a case like that. This morning I got the parcel thank you very much fresh meat from a Swine is very good and the bread rools are still the same with it. I wonder whether I will be released from Hospital on the 28th or stay another week but they will tell me. With my heartfelt Greetings Heinrich.
