Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1942-12-23) letter no. 118 (1942-12-31) next letter (1943-01-01) [we hope with all our hearts that it brings victory] and thus the longed-for peace. I spent the old year quite well considering the circumstances, after all, i spent over three-quarters of it at home. Grenadiers are rarely that lucky these days. I'm fine so far, healthy and happy. The day passes in the monotony already described. But now often think about whether you're not working too hard. Mom, i want to have you for a long, long time, please don't wear yourself out. We're not that dependent on the money, are we?! remember that in the new year too! don't worry about me, i'll get through it. Now please urgently think about the writing paper! send greetings to all my friends and all the best for the new year. Once again, best wishes and greetings from your hansl. Ns thanks also for kelly's letter! Date: 31 December 1942.
