$25.00

This is an authentic, original WWII German Feldpost letter set dated September 25, 1941, written by soldier Albert Deissler to his family in Heidelberg, Germany.Full Translation:
O.U. [In the Field], September 25, 1941My dear Parents, Willy, Magda, and Children!First of all, my dear parents, thank you for the parcel. Everything tasted great and arrived just at the right time. I am sorry that I haven't answered your letter yet, and you must forgive me for this. In my thoughts I am always at home with you, but I have a lot of work, sometimes until 10:00 PM, and then I'm just glad if I can at least write to Käte and Bubi. But I always send greetings to you parents through Käte, and I hope she passes them on.As Käte writes to me, you dear parents are still doing well, which I can also report about myself. One can indeed be glad to be allowed and able to be here; in these times so many give their lives for Germany, so one must be content with one's lot. At the moment we have very nice weather. This would be real vacation weather. Now Willy will be taking advantage of the nice weather; he has had to experience a lot in Russia.Regarding curtains, dear parents, things have gotten bad/scarce. They only have small sizes left. But I will try to get some anyway. Perhaps I will be allowed to come home for Christmas, and then I will bring them with me. Yesterday a good comrade left for Heidelberg and is bringing Käte various things. She will certainly be happy about that.This afternoon I learned that on Sunday night I am allowed to go to Paris and Versailles. I am the first one here in the section to receive this privilege. The doctor said that I am going along. So the Sergeant will just have to work a bit extra now.Now, dear Father, how is business going? I hope still well. How is dear Mother doing? Does she still think of her two soldier sons in her quiet place? And hopefully I will be lucky enough to stay with you again for a few days at Christmas. This would be the greatest happiness for me.Now I have been away from home for over 1 year and 3 months. What a long time, and yet it went by so quickly. Your news in your letter about those who have fallen recently really deeply shaken me. Well, how it must come and who falls—we humans do not know. Everyone just does his duty for the Fatherland, and victory is certain for us.In this spirit, I close my letter and hope that these few lines bring you joy. Stay healthy, dear parents, and warm greetings also to Willy, Magda, and the parents, and a kiss from your son.
AlbertP.S. Maybe Willy will also have time to write me a few lines.The tobacco, dear Father, costs nothing. It is, after all, only a small thing compared to all you have already done for me. The main thing is that you, dear Father, have something to smoke. When I have something again, I will send it to you again. 1 package of tobacco is also on its way.
