Dear Kate
Just a line to let you know that I am alright and still cooking but I expect the Division will break up in a week or two. Your book came in very useful. I should not like to be without it. There was four messes on D.H.Q and ours is the only one left. I thought I should have to leave and let one of the other cooks come, but I still keep my place. I should like to be officers servant when we break up, but I expect I shall be with army of occupation till I get demobed. I dont mean soldiering if I can get a job any how while I am in the army. I hope I am out of it before 1920 any way. Write as often as you can and let me know how you are getting on I will write and let you know how I am getting on and where I get too.
With Love
Harry

Dear Jack
Just a line to let you know that I am alright and still working. Our mess is the only one left we keep getting fresh officers but I still keep my place as cook. I expect the division will break up in a week or two. I dont know were I shall get to. I shall try hard for officers servant when we break up but I expect I shall be with the army occupation for a while. but I dont mind so much as long that I am employed I have had my share of guards etc. I have received your tobacco alright and was very pleased with it. I am lucky to be here till now as all the cooks from the other three messes have finished I thought they would take me place, but I keep as clean as possible I think that as a lot to do with it not the cooking but its a big job as you always messing with the fire. We have had the General for dinner but I got on alright. mind you I dont cook any poultry or game. Write Every week and let me know how you are both getting on
With Best Love to you Both
Harry

| Censo de 1919 | |
Tras la primera guerra mundial la isla de Cuba se constituyó en nación receptora de emigrantes, que despavoridos ante la miseria que dejaba en la vieja Europa la conflagración, abandonaban sus tierras en busca de mejores horizontes.
Pero no sólo europeos arribaron a costas criollas. También vecinos caribeños y continentales.
En el censo de 1919, de una [...] [..] Leer nota completa | | Publicado 03-Jan-2008 por Camilo López Darias en ComunidadCultura

| 27th December 1919. Harry's on the move!! | | Harry's written this card to Jack on 27th December reporting that he'll be on the move on the 29th. Coincidentally, the Card shows Tortona - the same location as his first card from Italy back in November 1917. Then, he bought the card as the troop train stopped on the way to the front. Perhaps this will be his last stop before leaving Italy. Note that it's been "Pas [..] Leer nota completa | | Publicado 27-Dec-2009 por Pte Harry Lamin en General
