The front of the postcard reads:

To My Friend at the Front

I don鈥檛 know where you are old man,
But I guess you鈥檙e somewhere right.
Giving a good account of yourself,
Perhaps in the thick of the fight.

I don鈥檛 know how you fare old chap,
But I guess you鈥檙e getting along
T鈥檌s a deuce of a job you鈥檝e got to beat,
And I reckon you鈥檙e going it strong.

T鈥檌s but a word of cheer I send,
But I wish it straight and true,
And I hope you鈥檒l soon be back again,
With our Kings 鈥淏est Thanks鈥� to you.

The words on the back of the postcard read:

Words on postcard home:

To George From Tom

To Ernie and George, with my best love and kisses from somewhere in France, and be good 鈥榯il I come back.

Ernie xxxx
