“Tuesday.
Dear wife and children,
I received your letter this morning and saw that everything is going well. Everything is fine here too. I will try to be home on Sunday, but I don’t yet know if it will work out, because the official turn for leave is only on the 3rd and 4th of February. That’s because the team was split up for a while, but tomorrow we start again.
If I can, I will write again to let you know whether it will go ahead. So we’ll just have to wait and see.
Warm greetings to all of you, and a thousand kisses from your loving husband and father.
J.F. Bouman
3‑II‑39 R.I.
