My beautiful Anitra,

I just got your letter.

I asked about your cousin's husband, Goldenberg. He was an editor of a weekly: 'der bigmouth troublemaker'. I can't find out any more; and
there's nothing I can do from the Navy anyway. His father was decorated in the previous war wasn't he? I wouldn't worry about it. These
things have a way of working themselves out. [modern edit could include " ... " there]

Regarding your other issue. Yes, I did read that "Long Legs Und Liquor" was shut down. But we all know it was a ses pit, so... But I do remember back in '33 when me and your brother use to stand out back and try to sneak in. Good times!

Speaking of your brother, can you find out if that land plot is still there? But don't trouble yourself over it; I'll ask him when I get there.

Same for your father... How is he? That's hard work he's doing there. But the men in your family have always been tanks.

See you soon. I love you, my beautiful.

Love,
Erich.
