Dear Sis,
Well, how is everyone getting along now? I am feeling swell myself and hoping to get home soon now that the war over here is all finished.
I have been taking some more pictures lately and will send you some if I don’t get started for home soon. Leola sent me some films for my camera the other day so hope to have some more pictures soon. Did you see the pictures that I sent to Leola?
I was in London on leave on VE Day and I never saw such crowds in all my life. You could hardly move on the streets, all the street cars and buses and everything had to stop running because of the crowds.
Well, I have to get to work and help get supper now so will close for this time. Hoping to hear from you soon and also see you. Write soon.
Love, Allan
