Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1944-06-15) letter 259 (1944-06-21) next letter (1944-06-25) envelope: front back text quedlinburg, june 21, 1944. My beloved mum! i was very surprised when your package arrived yesterday. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for that! i hadn’t expected anything like this. But it certainly wasn’t necessary because my mum rarely gets such good food and so much food in a hospital as there is here! and today your lovely registered letter arrived with the stamps so thank you very much for that too. But my mum wasn’t happy that you sent them back here. Look, what am i supposed to do with them? i can’t get up yet and they expire on june 25. I know exactly that you’re missing them a lot. You don’t get much anyway. I will now try to get a nurse outside to exchange them for holiday stamps. Thanks also for the [letter from heinzl, he sends his regards. ]. Date: 21 June 1944.
