| dc.description.transcription | 2610 Whitis Austin, Texas October 8, 1944 My dear Mrs. Deakins: I surely appreciate your kindness in remembering me with your letter of October 3 which contained the pictures taken at Oflag 64. I showed the pictures to Craig Campbell's parents who live here in Austin. They were very pleased to see them as they haven't had any pictures of Craig since he has been a prisoner of war. I should like for you to keep me on your mailing list for any further news of Oflag 64. Sincerely yours, Evelyn Ranck |
