Field post letters from hans koch, vienna, world war ii, eastern front, 1922-1945 previous letter (1943-02-04) letter no. 130 (1943-02-09) next letter (1943-02-12) card front card back card back card - rotated text [as you say, it will now be two years since i said goodbye to home] and also to my wonderful youth. If there was peace now, i could pack my "clothes" and leave the barracks with my suitcase. How wonderfully wonderful that would be! but we don't want to let it make us grey - i'm still young, and the war must end at some point! then i can go back to you and we'll see what happens next! don't worry or be too upset, just stay healthy and strong. How's your foot? i hope everything is ok again! i have just come back from trench control, it was between 4 and 6 in the morning. I am well and healthy. The duty is strict, we reporters have to walk a lot. Otherwise it is bearable. It is toasty warm in the bunker, so it is very comfortable. I am sending you 2 airmails and a zl. Stamp. I have the zl on for later. Greetings and kisses from your heart, your hansl. Date: 9 February 1943.
