Dear Mother & Father,
Just a few lines to let you
know I am quite well and trust you are both in
good health . How are all at home I hope
all are well. Tell all the friends I was
asking for them. How is Bill Nicholl say
I was asking for him and hope he is quite
strong.
Well we are having lots of work to do at
present as we are at the end of our training period.
We expect to leave here in a few days for
somewhere. We are not sure where that is but
we expect it is the Dardenelles or some place
near Constantinople. I don't mind as it will
be a change from all the training we have done
for the past six months.
