To the American Forces:
This man Sig. [underlined] EZIO GAGGINI [/underlined], has given me new clothes, a good bed in his house, and the very best of food for two weeks while I have been waiting to pass the line, which is first five hours walk from here.
I do hope that you will do him as good a turn as he has done me, for certainly help me very much.
