Mrs. Curnock,

Dear Mrs. Curnock,
[underlined] Sgt. R.M. Curnock [/underlined]
We thank you for your letter of 10th June and are glad to know that you have had a recent letter from your son.
We have entered his address in our records and as we told you in our letter of May 17th, all parcels should be addressed to Stalag Luft 6. Letters you should continue to send to Stalag Luft 3 with Stalag Luft 6 in brackets. As the words “Lager A” have been deleted from your son’s card, it is not necessary to include these in the address.
We hope that your son gave you good news of himself when he wrote and that he will, in due course, receive the parcel you have despatched.
Yours sincerely,
p.p. E. M. THORNTON
DIRECTOR.

LONDON, W.1.
13 June, 1944.
P.418222/1/P.4.A.2.
Sir,
I am commanded by the Air Council to express to you their great regret on learning that your son, Sergeant Henry Evan Wade Simpson, Royal Air Force, is missing as the result of air operations on the night of 7th/8th June, 1944, when Lancaster aircraft in which he was flying as flight engineer set out to bomb a target at Versailles and failed to return.
This does not necessarily mean that he is killed or wounded, and if he is a prisoner of war he should be able to communicate with you in due course. Meanwhile enquiries are being made through the International Red Cross Committee, and as soon as any definite news is received you will be at once informed.
If any information regarding your son is received by you from any source you are requested to be kind enough to
/communicate
H.W. Simpson, Esq.,
Amberley,
Single street,
Biggin Hill,
Kent.
[page break]
communicate it immediately to the Air Ministry.
The Air Council desire me to convey to you their sympathy in your present anxiety.
I am, Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
Charles Evans

Dear Mum,
Glad to get 3 & 4 yesterday. Thanks for the letter Dad. Will write you another shortly. Haven’t much time for this one so will make it short & to the point. Have finished our O.T.U. and are posted to-day with a weeks leave before going to a conversion unit. We think we’ll do a few weeks on Halifaxes & then get us a Lancaster & go to work in earnest. Have been on Wellingtons here same as Terry was. All the crew very pleased with each others results on the course. I was classed above average as a navigator & recommended for a commission which they reckon will come off in about 3 months time. Buck our pilot is an awfully nice bloke, Queenslander from one of those big stations out west where they measure ‘em in square miles. Our Gunners don’t drink thank God – most of the others I met here are something awful – seems a characteristic of gunners. Sorry to hear Grandad Adams is sick. Thanks for the cake. Don’t need anything in the winter line I don’t think – except perhaps some socks. We have more winter clothes otherwise than we know how to carry around. Sending a seamail shortly. Love to all at home. Bert XXXX
