My Dear Sis

I have just recieved your letter of the 5th May. We have moved from the other place and expect to move again in a day of two again, we are seeing a lot of this country as we travel all over. The whole country looking lovely orchards in bloom wild flowers out and the crops growing fine, the last two weeks has made a great difference being very warm. I would like to have you here for a while to see what it was like. We are getting along fairly well considering where we are and what we are I suppose we should not kick but it seems natural and we put a lot of our spare time in at it though it does not do us a bit of good in fact makes us feel worse.

I have answered your other letters and have recieved the magazines you could not have sent any better if you had tried. I hear from home quite often and am very pleased to hear they get along so well. This letter of yours has come very quick being only twenty days but I have had them take forty one days to come accross, I suppose it all depends on the boats. I am very pleased to hear that you have been accepted and to know that you will be settled for a while. I am quite proud of you and want one your photos as soon as you can get it accross here and a good one too. You should be thankful for three meals a day, but we seem to get along fairly well though I have gone down on flesh alittle not in the face so much as in the body even my hip bones stick out and I have never felt them before but I am perfectly well which is all anyone can wish for out here. I nearly dont know how we have so many accidents but they will Suffer, if you saw the way we go over the country and the kind are go over you would wonder there was not more one boy in the squadron broke his neck last week and I dont think it will be long before some of us are following behind I have been very lucky one thing I have a good horse she has never missed a jump yet or fell with me but the best of them will fall at times. I had a letter from Eric the other day he must have had a hard kick as it broke his jaw and his front teeth out I suppose you have heard of it or he may have written you. he is over here somewhere may run across him one of these days in my travels. I have not heard from Russel since I have been in France but Eric heard form him just before he wrote me and he was well Well I guess I will have to quit as I cant think of any more to write but will be able to give you a long speel when I get back

Best of Luck
Your Bro
