nervous & sad. A sister & orderly were killed at a C.C.S. close by. Don't worry about me because we are well cared for & do not think we shall be put in such dangerous area again.
Dorothy & I are very well. Some of our Battalions are camped near & called a couple of our friends to see us, so we shall be out with then this afternoon. With our men could keep out of it altogether. This is a very pretty spot & seems healthy for the camps. Major C . – is going to Aust. at the beginning of next months, so just address my letters C/O Aust Base Post Office – etc until you hear from me again.
I bought a new pair of boots this a.m. they are very difficult to get & I'm very hard on boots now.
Cannot say much but should love to tell you heaps. Am very well & happy. Fondest love & kisses to you all.
From
Edith.
