Dear Miss Russell
Just a card to let you know I am keeping fairly well, I have been in Hospital for 2 months with Sciatica in my legs, but am now in Limburg Camp a little better than I was. I trust this will find you and your friends in the very best of health, and I thank you very much for the parcels I have recived from you through the Can-Red-Cross. Have you yet recived the photo I sent, its not very good but the best I could get.
With all good wishes yours very truly L/C P. J.Tappin
