Dear Parents.
I hope all is well at home, I am sending greetings from here.Thank you for the letter # 27 I also got the parcel with the sandwiches, ‚I am on guard today, and it is Sunday. Not much going on a Sunday, my Comrades have a free day. I just got a message from a Comrade that there are 5 parcels waiting for me. I don’t know what they contain, but I will write it next time. Last Thursday I was at the dentist, he pulled a tooth so Friday I had a day off, it has gone cold here too, how is it at home? Have you got snow? Have you finished with the fields and is the Tractor going? I received all the 100 gram parcels. Ketschau inUdestedt have written too. What else is new at home? Here every day is the same. We are in a lonely village.
I will close now and hope to see you soon.
Your Werner.
