Dear Ma,

I have been moved to a different Camp since my last letter and am Settled down again. I am still in good health and spirit and hope you are the Same.

My Pilot and tech Hyde were unfortunately Killed when they were shot down. I have already made several good friends. The grub we get is still good and our treatment too. Please do not worry about me

your Loving Son

Leslie
