My dear brother
After a heavy rain we have been enjoying a bright day with a gale of wind and what the aerial observers call good visibility. (There I had to stop) 29.8.17. More rain but we are not in the trenches on the contrary we are "at rest" in billets after a very strenuous time, the hardest the Bn has ever had.
As usual I was ordered out of the line before the business began & so I am here. As a result I have come to the conclusion that I must leave the battalion whenever the C.O. considers that a suitable opportunity has arrived.
It is no use being an assist adjt if I am not an understudy of the whole
