Captain/Major Harold Ward Correspondence, item 12

  batch any day now. This afternoon my

  new tunic turned up & it is a good

  fit & not heavy to wear. You might

  send me out two pairs of those 

  big trench socks. I think they will

  easily last until the cold spell is 

  over. I got an excellent pair of boots

  from Ordnance & my feet ought to

  keep dry until I get in up to my

  knees. Supplies have been a little

  difficult to get hold of but we have 

  fared very well. Plenty of good food

  helped out by what we were able to

  bag from a Field Force Canteen.

    All the Officers are well & cheerful
  

  but Walter seemed as if he had got

  a chill this afternoon. The CO & the Adjuster

  have gone up this afternoon & 

  with his platoon. A platoon from B & D

  have also gone along with the Company Second-

  in commands. Knox has also gone up as

  Intelligence Officer. I saw Blanchard this

  afternoon & he seems quite happy.

    Kenneth would enjoy seeing all the 
  

  horses & the motors if he were here but

  I don't think Alice would like to push 

  his pram along the roads?

    There is very little to do besides
