EDITOR’S NOTE: Below is the last letter Winfred sent home to the Folks in 1943.
Dec. 28, 1943 1030 WF Station #144 – Old Buckenham, UK via New York City, N.Y.
Winfred writes he is doing fine but hated being away from home for Xmas. He still has not received any mail; doesn’t have much of a chance to write; asks about the Post Office Christmas rush with all the overseas letters; and closes because there is not much he can say.
