September 13, 1945 - Lansburg

 Dear Sis:

I guess it is about time I was writing to you, as its been about a month. I wish I had someone to make me write more often but, I just can't seem to make myself do it.

We are still in Lansburg, and we are having it pretty easy. I am back driving a jeep and am keeping pretty busy. I went back so I wouldn't have to be on guard all the time.

Well, there aren't very many old men left around here now. The men with high points have gone to outfits that are leaving for the States soon, and the low pointers have gone to occupation. All that are left have from 45 to 65 points, and the latest rumor is that the 80th will leave in November.

I received a letter from Gerald McGee, and he has 80 points, so I guess he will be home soon. I haven't heard from Bob Neidig for some time; I don't remember whether I answered his last letter or not.

Well,, as I said we have it pretty nice here in Lansburg. We have movies every night and some stage shows about twice a week.

I guess that is about all for this time. I'll try to write a little sooner next time. 

Until then, all my love.

"Bert"
