I am happy to comply with your request and have arranged for 2 bottles of Machandel and 200 cigarettes to be sent to you. Unfortunately, we too are very limited here by the new regulations and decrees with these wholesome items, so that it is only possible to send the above-mentioned quantity. I may hope that you and your troops are still doing well and that you are getting through everything safely, even though the fighting, as can be seen from everything, is difficult and persistent. Wishing you all the best, I send my best regards and wishes for a very healthy Christmas to you and your unit...' Folds, else very good. With photo.
