Читать книгу We Were Young and at War: The first-hand story of young lives lived and lost in World War Two - Sarah Wallis - Страница 55

My dear family,

We have been relieved of lifeguard duty, just as the great strike against England is imminent. I think we are going to really experience something now, and we won’t have much longer to wait. I can’t tell you where we are. We are living the real outdoor life, like we used to in the Hitler Youth…

It’s a shame about the beautiful material and the white suit, but maybe we can get a better, cheaper one in England. Six planes flew over today but they were forced to turn back in a hurry. They don’t have far to go, it only takes about 10 minutes from here. All day long they flew overhead, sometimes 50 or more fighter planes.

Your Herbert
