Braunschweig May 11th 1943
Dear Parents and Grand Dad !
Yesterday you came and visited me, and today I will write a short letter, and I hope that you got back home last night . Yesterday, when we were in Brunswick , the Birthday Parcel arrived here but I will not open it just yet. Today orders came that we will move-to another camp the day after tomorrow. But only in a different part of Brunswick, so you see, a Soldier has to be constantly on the move. And I have to pack all my things once again I have to figure out how to carry it all. Dear Mother, don’t worry a thing, it is the end of work day now and I will finish the letter. Then I have to clean the room.
Many Greetings Heinrich
From: Pvt.1 Class Heinrich Bredemeier , 3°’ March Battery Art.Reserve Regt 19, Brunswick
To: Family H.Bredemeier , Rehren A.O. 12 nr Rinteln, Weser.
