I keep thinking about you and long to be back with you now.
We hear very little about what is happening - no one seems sure or able to tell us anything.
Do you hear much of what is happening to us?
How are things at home?
At least we are able to get cigarettes.
We are all fed up now.

Little seems to be getting through the post.
Have you sent any letters recently?
Cannot wait to be home with you.
Lovely weather at present.
Hope you got my letter - excuse the writing, I've got the butt of a rifle for a desk.
I have not got much more to say as its nearly time to fall in for the night
