July 24, 1945 - Germany

 Dear Sis:

How are you by this time? I am just fine as usual. I have gotten back from Paris. I had a very nice time. I saw all the big buildings. Went to see several shows. Paris is just like it was before the war, I guess the people sure love our cigs. They will pay 70 Francs a pack for them, that is $1.40 in our money. And $1.00 for a bar of soap. I got a couple of souvenirs I am enclosing in this letter.

We are still in the same town I last wrote to your from but we are going to move this week. About 50 miles I guess.

Well your mail isn't coming in now. I guess it's because they quit sending it by plane. They say about half of the air mail goes by ship now.

I am sending Mom some maps. It will show you everywhere I have been so far.

Well I guess I will have to close for this time as I can't think of anything else to say.

Be good and I am going to write more often.

Love,

"Bert"
