I suppose the Liberal's are going to make a great change in the Buildings as soon as they get into power.

I have been up to London twice since I had my six day's leave and each time I seem to miss the "Zepp" raids. If I don't see one next week I will have to go somewhere else for a week-end. I think a week-end would not begin to be enough. We all look forward to the time when we will be able to set foot on good old B.C. soil again. The war news is looking up lately, so we might get back sooner than we expect. You never know, it might end, just as suddenly as it started. Lets hope so anyway.

Will have to close now, so with best regards to the rest of the Cat. Department, I remain

Very faithfully yours, Gregory T. Yorke
