Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1943-02-04) letter no. 130 (1943-02-09) next letter (1943-02-12) front card back card back card - rotated text east, 9. Ii. 43. My beloved mum, your lovely letter of january 27th gave me great joy again. Right at the beginning you said how worried and anxious you are about me. I can understand you very well now that we're hearing such things from all sides, but believe me, everything is still the same here and quiet. I'm not trying to lie to you, you have to see it for yourself, if it weren't quiet i wouldn't be able to write to you so often. The packages and the kilo package arrived, as i already wrote to you, with thanks. Now, as i heard, there is a package ban again. Does that also apply to the 10 kg package? - yes, now, as you say, i am of legal age [of majority]. How i would love to be one again, how nice it would be to walk along with you as a tiny little "stubble". Now, as you say, it will be two years since i said goodbye to home [and also to the wonderful times of my youth. ]. Date: 9 February 1943.
