  Cherie, 

     Is the Tempy Temporary 2/Lt Francis John Oatts who has 

  been awarded the military cross by any chance the 

  son of our old friend Chas Oatts?

     We have been having great changes here. Do you 

  remember Tredenmick formerly adjt. of the 22nd. 

  He is now our Commandant and a very splendid one

  too! Pace looks after the bombing administration 

  and I after the instruction. Everything is going strong

  and this school is going to be a fine institution. 

     I hope your father manages to get a job but I 

  cant see just what sort of a job would suit him.

     Everyone seems to think the war will be over 

  before long. I suppose the Boche  Germans cannot hold the 

  Russians as well as the French and ourselves. I am 

  very surprised to hear A. L. Palmer is back in England 

  again. I had not heard he had gone. I wonder 

  on what grounds he got home.

    Cadand is here doing a course. He is very 

  cheery.

     There's no news so cheeryoh. 

                                                               Yours Initials

  
  

  I had a long letter from Aunt Tillie

  Have sent £ 10 to Capital & Counties Bank.
