Dear Parents !
Will write a few words today for you and it is Saturday afternoon and not much going on here. It is almost like home today, nice weather, good Music on the Radio and a piece of your cake that is getting stale but still better than no cake. I even had a bath and a shave but the thing that pleases us most is, that the Russians have used up all their daily allotted Artillery Ammunition and so we can rest an doze, and rightly called it a peaceful
Saturday afternoon . But of course, it is far from home here not like it but the best there is for now ,
Your Hans
