Dear Jean, I hope you are well and happy. I miss you so much and being far apart separated by miles of sea sometimes hits home. My battalion has finally landed after days of sea and no land. We have made our way to the Muar river and you could hear the deafening sounds of whizzing bullets. There is a smell of death in the air. The Indian brigade and the 2/4th Anti-Tank Regiment are helping us and we have managed to destroyed many of their tanks. Many our comrades have fallen as the Japanese are relentless and we have not
been able to stop them. I wish that you did not have to here about this but I have injured my left leg from a bullet and I am forced to limp. So are the consequences of war, There is not a day that passes by that I don't think of you and I hope I will have the opportunity to see your face again, Your love, Albert
