Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1938-11-27) letter no. 1 (1941-02-16) - new numbering on the envelopes next letter (1941-02-27) envelope: front back text but despite this everything is going very well. Karl and i are in a locker together. Now he is sitting opposite me, stretching and writhing, he can't think of anything to write. You will be interested to know how i get up. Well, up until now it's gone well; during the week we get up at 6 a. M. And on sundays at 8 a. M. So that's fine. During the course of this week i'll send you the suitcase with my civilian clothes at home. I don't need the shirts, underpants and all that stuff; we've got it all. So now over to you, what's new? what's dad doing? is he well? i hope so. Are hackelbauer's pictures finished yet? did anything come of them? are we all turning a blind eye? well, hopefully not. If anything comes of them, please send them to me. Have a couple more prints made so you can have some too. The uniform fits me quite well. When i'm out, i'll have myself photographed and send you a picture. So, as you can see, i'm doing well. You don't need to worry about me at all. We can easily cope here. Now i want to end my letter by asking, dear mum, not to be too upset and not to cry either, because even from afar i will send you many greetings and kisses from your son hans. Greetings, karl. My address is: private hans koch 1st private replacement company 82 göttingen lüttich barracks. Writing without a stamp is field post. Date: 16 February 1941.
