Dear All Beloved !

it’s a weekend I have time to answer the letters and thank you very much for the parcel with sausage and butter. Soon we will be moving away from here, I don’t know yet whether I can send my suitcase home or not. I am back on the gun again in the crew. I am shell handler on the third gun . Please thank Mrs Watermann for the cake coupons she send me. I have to be in the horse stable all Sunday. My Comrades who live nearer than 50 Kilometers are gone home on weekend furlough. If I send the suitcase, try to open it. I omly have my key here

Heinrich.
