He is writing about a lot of fruit they sent him specially 11 lb of peaches and pears.He is writing a lot about meals and health and healthy meals, about vacation caused by air raid damage in Munich , about a race that was cancelled. He received a lot of letters from his students from old ones and present ones. A special friend, Ernst Siedenhag, now is stationed close to him. He will go to have a bath (shower and bath)...

This is only a short synopsis.

Thank you again Gerdan.

Gerdan can you read this signature of a Company Chief with 2.Unterbootsausbildungabteilung in August 1942? I know Fregattenkapitän Friedrich Karl Schünemann was the Commander at this time but can't find any information on Staff or Company Chiefs.

Thanks again.
