1918
Mon 1st Apl
I am leaving Kiel tomorrow for the Officer's Receiving Depot at Karlsruhe, Baden.

Cramer, poor old chap, leaves for Kommando, where he shall slave 12 hours a day for 30 phennigs (3d)

Tue. 2nd.
With the benediction of Kate, Doris, & Nummer 25, I left the lazarelt at 11.30 am, escorted by a Landsturm unter offizier of about 35 or so.

The streets of Kiel-Wik were crowded with uniforms, & the shops! – in one pastry-cooks the window exhibit was two loaves of that awful black-bread!

Boarded the "electrischer" at Hildegarde Strasse. and we whisked into Kiel past acres of awful flats and hundreds of kiddies playing in the streets. Flats are apparently the only residences.
