December 17, 1916 - Letter to his Mother from Bramshott Camp. The hut is still in quarantine however they are making the most of it and hope to be out for Christmas. Major Moffat has arranged for a big dinner and is going to eat with the men. This was a big deal as officers in Britain were not allowed to dine with the Privates.
