Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1944-01-01) letter no. 219 (1944-01-04) next letter (1944-01-12) envelope: front back text i cannot say how long this will take, it could be this week or not until next week. We'll just wait and see. There will probably be a holiday. We'll see each other again then, i'm really looking forward to it! hopefully i'll still run into poldi or has he already left vienna? i think i'll still run into karl? i'm just surprised that kurtl is already on holiday again, if i'd stayed with the troops i certainly wouldn't have been given a holiday yet. Or is he also coming from the hospital? you ask what troppau is like, i like it a lot, you can put up with the war here, no alarm, nothing. I know my way around everywhere, i often go to the cinema and theater. I celebrated new year's eve in a big way. One of our non-commissioned officers had his wife visiting; she was staying at a private home. The non-commissioned officer and his wife invited us. We each brought a bottle of wine. Date: 4 January 1944.
