Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1944-12-11) letter no. Blank (1944-12-14) next letter (1944-12-19) envelope: front back text i was completely blown away when i heard that our burgtheater and the opera had been hit. Thankfully it wasn't true. What madness to destroy everything like that. We also had strong overflights last week, the whole sky was full. Otherwise it's better now. Well, my mamschl, something not so great, my planned holiday for christmas is probably not going to happen. It's definitely not yet, but i don't think so. You know that there is a holiday ban, which is why it's bad. But we don't want to be sad about it, right? we must always be grateful to fate that it is like this, we must never forget that. How i would love to be with you, but there's nothing i can do. Date: 14 December 1944.
