My dear brother

We made another move last night and are back again to where we were I think, when I last wrote.

When moving out last time I passed a platoon on the road lead by a captain. He stopped + asked if my name was not Crease + said his was Nicholls. This made me no wiser. Then he said he had married a Leeder + so we got in touch. He was a nice looking chap but I can't remember ever meeting him so how he recognized me in a dim light + wearing a steel helmet I don't know. We talked about Cardboro Bay for a few minutes + passed on. He seems a very nice chap. Then in the village where we were billetted

Thanks very much for P.C. of 88h under Lt. Ambery + with Nell in background. Alos photo of Gipsy Pym
