Rothenburg Feb 28th 1943

Dear Beloved All !

This will be my last letter that I send from here. Yesterday I got your letter from Feb 24th and thank you very much. I also got the parcel with the cake. Very good it was. I might leave here Wednesday night and I am in Hannover Thursday morning at 3.30 AM. Maybe I be able to get the Mail bus from Lauenau otherwise I find other transport. I don’t like the long walk from Lauenau like I did 4 years ago. I look forward seeing you again, I reckon one deserves a furlough every year. The time I spend here in Rothenburg will never come again. I wont think of any times ahead. All the best and see you soon.
