Imagine, i've been on the road since november 26th. He sent baked goods, a few cigarettes and, above all, the most essential, writing paper. I had to interrupt the letter now, was with our company commander and a sergeant further back at the regiment. There was a small concert there by a kdf group [strength through joy]. They played chamber music, but it was very beautiful, a warm greeting from our beautiful homeland. So you can see that it's very quiet here, otherwise the artists wouldn't come so far forward! now on the 4th i've been back with the company for two months, how time flies. ]. Date: 5 January 1943.
