Overseas Letters Dear Miss Luker: Your lovely par- cel arrived yesterday in tip-top condi- tion. Please convey my hearty thanks to all those who helped in making it up. You ladies sure know what the boys over here -need. The foodstuffs will stare be a welcome ad- dition to our Air Force rations which are quite often very plain. At pres- ent I am stationed at Utersen, near Hamburg, Germany. I haVe taken several jaunts into Hamburg, but out- side of service clubs, there is very little doing for amusement. Much of the city is in ruins and every place you go you see heaps of brick and rusty, twisted steel girders, where a former building was situated. When the Air Force bombed this city' they sure hit their target smack on the nose. Thai German people in Ham- burg are appal-ently well fed from what 1 have seen of them, and •their dress --well, it doesn't look any dif- ferent from Canadian civilians. Most of the gang seem to be getting home again. As for myself, I don't expect to be home much before next June.

We are supposed to leave on Sept. 6th for England, and then home. That will be our V -E day. This Company is going home with the ist Division. Be sure and not let the Institute send me further 'parcels. Al- so thanks again for the parcels they did send me. Bye, bye. Roy Kyle. Dear Gladys: Just a line to let you know f received the box you peo- ple sent rne. I want to thank you very much. It was indeed the best one I have yet received from any one. I don't believe there was any- thing you overlooked, and it all ar- rived in perfect condition. We really enjoyed all of ft, especially the candy ane cookies. I have just- returned from six weeks' leave. I spent all of it in Bournemouth. It's a large seaside resort on the south coast, and I enjoyed it very tench. We are all just putting in that now, and es- pecially since V4 day there is noth- ing to do. I don't think it will be very long before I am home again, I Like England though, so I'm not yet terribly anxious •to get home. 1 met Bob Sangster and Norris McEwan while I was ia Bournemouth. I be- lieve Norris is on the continent now. There really isn't any news to tell you, Gladys. I find it difficult to write a letter when I have so little to tell you. Perhaps I had better confine my efforts to thanking you all again for the box; it was really swelL Best of luck to you all. Sin- cerely, Ron Parker. Dear Gladys and All: A few days ago I received your very lovely box. My most humble 'but very sincere thanks to you all. I realize sugar,and fciodstuffs are •rationed bank home, still and yet you send me the most delicious home-made candy and other things. I passed the box of candy around to my lads. For a few of them it was the first home-made candy they had had for a couple of years. May I sat, "thanks a million" for them. As for the rest of the box, it was grand too. We are still quite busy here, although we don't have the grim battle casualties we had a while ago. Most of our severely wounded, have recovered enough •to be repatriated as you no doubt know.

There is no word of our hos- pital closing. However, it won't be a great while at the longest. I must say I'm looking forward to going home, although I have enjoyed my work and would not have missed the experience for a good bit. I 'was in London on V -J day (luckily it was my day off). We saw the procession to Parliament in the pouring rain, but it was worth it. No doubt you people celebrated too. From the papers, Canada seemed to do her share. It is really wonderful to think that the fighting has stopped. The sad part is to see all the lads who have sacrificed so much and re- menaber the ones who will not come back. Will you please give my best regards to all my friends around home. I shquld write many more let- ters than I do, but when the weather is nice we go out, and when in feint, well there's some other diversion—a poor alibi I know. However, I, love to get letters and shall try to an-' saver occasionally if any one has a spare minute to write to me. In clos- ing, thanks again to you all for your very generous parcel. assure you it is greatly. appreciated. Very sin- cerely yours, (N.S.) Marion Dougall.
