Letters From Bill – [Undated]

Pte. Cameron, W.G.

F56192

Hospital-in-Field

B.L.A.

 

Dear Family,

I am in a hospital in France and am not strong enough to write myself, a girl in the Red Cross is doing it for me.

I was wounded on the 20th of July and since then have been moving from one hospital to another. I am feeling much better now and the doctors do not think it will be so very long until I am back in the rest centre in England.

I haven’t received any mail since being wounded, but the Regiment probably keeps track of me….

Aubrey Bruce was also wounded but I have not been able to find out how seriously.

Don’t worry about me because there is nothing to worry about. I’ll write at the very first opportunity. Give my best regards to everybody.

Lots of love to all, Bill

What a relief to hear he’s okay. Though, I suspect he’s not doing as well as he is leading his family to believe in this letter.
