Dear parents
and all:
Well I am now
safe in England. I arrived yesterday and I am feeling fine and dandy and I hope
you all are the same. This is a nice place and our Lieutenant took us out for a
little sight seeing trip today and we just got back. Well I stood the trip
fine, I didn’t get seasick or miss a meal on the trip over. It rained when we
got off the ship and went to our camp and it rains a little today but it is
only a shower and then the sun shines again, and that is the way it keep on.
Well did you
get those pictures I sent from Camp before I left or not? Eddie Schwietz was
along on the same boat that I was.
Tho I haven’t
got any more news that I can tell, I can tell you more when I get back home
again. I hope you are all well and please greet all the folks I know and write
me when you find time. With best wishes to you all from,
Henry Bergman
