Dear Walter,
How are you? We all here at home are missing you lots.
Brisbane has changed a lot since you left. Mum and her friends have been knitting socks, sewing pajamas and rolling bandages to send over to you and the other soldiers. Even I am helping! (Did I tell you that I won the award for the most things knitted by someone under 13 years?)
I miss the cricket. As you know, the cricket has stopped along with lots of other sports because the government thinks it takes away the ‘seriousness’ of the war.
Lots of people have been very mean to the Mullers across the street. Even though their son, Alrik, is fighting for Australia. It makes me very sad to see people calling them bad names.
As you know, father volunteered to go to war. He left the other day. I am very sad because both my brother and father are at war.
I miss you lots and may god look over you and protect you.
Love you lots, Your sister Nora
