Private J. D. Caves: The Long Journey Home

15 July 1945 London, England

15 July 1945 London, England

My Own Darling Jean,

Through the boat being delayed most of us here have been granted 7 days leave. I have spent mine in London. I am going back to Folkestone tomorrow. I've seen Madame Tussauds wax works - quite good of course. Some of the figures surprised me greatly. For instance Hitler's hair was almost reddish not black as I'd always supposed. Have walked around quite a lot, seen Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, Scotland Yard and all such like.
