"...About ten of us have been together since Nov. of '42 and have been in all kinds of trouble (including a time when two of our group were  kept under several armed guards) ....One of 'em has attacks of malaria frequently and yesterday he had it again and that guy  is just a shadow of his former self.....(these letters of late are messed up because of the wind aboard here )  ..here comes the inevitable ending as I have only one stamp at present and no more are available so we'll have to wait awhile..."
