Bad Oynhausen March 3™ 1944
Dear Parents and Granddad.
Today I got your letter from March 1° but let me ask, why would you like to write me every day from here . Nothing is going on here I might be another week here but I have to wait for new boots. And since I had that accident, I have a flat foot and need a special liner in the bottom of the shoes or boots. On Monday they will measure what I need. The X ray shows no damage to the bone, except for the flat food and the pain is already gone. I can not walk as yet and whether it gets better with a liner in the shoe we have to wait and see. I hope that you manage to come on Sunday and bring plenty of Cake, Eggs and cooked Ham, well, you know Mother what your son likes so I leave it to you. Uncle Fritz from Borstal will be coming too on Sunday, well, I am ok, outside is a Blizzard raging and I am glad to be inside. Now I will hear the front news on the radio, to know what is going on in the east. Greetings and Wiedersehen
Heinrich.
