“Dear Mum!

Now I finally have enough physical activity. All the days I don’t spend in the trenches, I spend hunting. I’m quite proud of my hunted prey, three wild boars. I’ll tell Dad the story of the hunt. Three days ago, I took part in a proper hunt for wild boars with thirty beaters and five shooters. I was the hunt leader. We flushed out eight in total, but all of them were shot past. We hunted from eight in the morning until seven in the evening with a half-hour break. I want to try again in three days, and in ten days it will be a full moon, so I’m definitely hoping for a boar.”
