Dear Madam,

As the Officer supervising the disposal of your husband’s effects, may I be permitted to offer my sincere sympathy.

In accordance with Air Ministry Orders, his personal effects, assembled at this Station will shortly be despatched to the Standing Committee of Adjustment R.A.F. Colnbrook, Slough, Bucks, who will communicate with you at the earliest possible date, and to whom all future correspondence should be addressed.

The effects, however, cannot be released until the formalities required by the Regimental Debts Act have been complied with.

Yours sincerely
