Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 [[:|previous letter]] () letter no. Empty (1943-04-05) [[:|next letter]] () envelope: front: empty back: empty text [now poldi was with you, that was] a pleasure, what does he look like? what a pity that we can't meet on vacation! he was and still is my best friend! - from schurl, that's also very sad, i wrote to kelly today. It's just very difficult to say anything about it. I think if the lieutenant didn't know for sure that he had been killed, he wouldn't have written it! we had cases like that in 1941 too. She should ask again who last saw him, dead or alive. I wrote that to her too, it's very sad. You write, let's let her believe it. Yes mum, it's better if she has absolute certainty. What's the point if she hopes and worries in vain and tells herself he's not dead, it's no use! Date: 5 April 1943.
