Dear Mum, Dad & Moira, & Yvonne,
Just a line to give you my new address. We are going there today, which is rather sooner than I had expected.
Most of the old “B” Flight are going to Texas & Florida, & I am the only one going to Neepawa, but I shall no doubt soon make friends. Pete Lamb & Mac are also split up, which is too bad.
How is Jack getting on. I should like to know very much, also John & the other lads. I haven’t seen Denis since Sunday, so I don’t know if he has been posted.
All for now.
Love.
Terry.
