Dear Parents and Grand Dad !

As [have a bit of time I am able to write a small FP Letter again I had a frozen toe and it is hurting so I am on the sick list today , right now I am soaking it in hot soapy water but I will be ok and hope the same from you. Today was a blue sky and the enemy bombers are overhead. We are all amazed about the Japanese conquest in the far east and we are confident that the war will go our way this year. . The diamond shape is our tactical sign from the Division that . If you see that in the newspaper or in the weekly picture news, you know it is from us .

Thank you for the letter from the 30th and the Pudding powder I will make now.

Greetings Heinrich
