Dear All at Home !
Yesterday I got the letters from Oct 20th and 23rd and an Air mail letter from the 4th and I can see that you are all well, the same as I am. I am hoping that the retreat soon will be over, so we can put up a defensive line and stop the Russian advance. You said that you mailed a few parcels but nothing has arrived here . I suppose the long pants are lost now and so have other parcels. Send me some more socks. I see that G Hahn is home on furlough , maybe next spring I will be home too. We have a lot of rain now, . Please do not worry about me, one day this war will be coming to an end Another war is the one against Lice and fleas here, because we seldom are able to wash. Now we will play a game of cards.
Heinrich.
