Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1943-02-26) letter no. 140 (1943-02-28) next letter (1943-03-02) east, february 28, 1943 my dear mum! today your lovely airmail letter dated february 22nd arrived. It was the only letter for the whole company; no one else had any mail. So you've finally got a bit of wine after a long time; it was very “smarmy” (4 rm), but the main thing is that it was good and you enjoyed it. Now you've sent off another 8 10 kg packages; i'm looking forward to it. Unfortunately these are now blocked too. I'm particularly pleased that your foot is already better; just don't overexert yourself! i am also very happy about the things from frauheim [rače-fram in sowenien???], they must be lovely and good people, please say hello to them from me and thank them on my behalf too. But the good things are for you, keep them, you just need them urgently. - yes, today i also felt that it is sunday at home. Imagine, today for lunch we had chicken soup, braised beef with peas, gravy and potatoes [and for dessert raisin pudding with mocha sauce. ]. Date: 28 February 1943.
