Description

Replies to their latest letter with comment on their activities and news. Writes little of his activities but mentions visit to Newmarket and Mildenhall. Reports sending off a parcel with books, laundry, sweets and chocolate (from flying rations). Mentioned that their bomb aimer had been in dock for a couple of days which has limited their flying. Was expecting leave some time.
