2587No date c.1940-1; Sgts. Mess Mildenhall Suffolk. 2 pages 8vo both with Royal Air Force letterhead bearing the motto 'PER ARDUA AD ASTRA'. Not in good condition - creased frayed torn and discoloured - but a marvellous and immediate piece of history regarding what one authority describes as the 'strategic bombing . principally against the Ruhr on which No.149 concentrated during the winter of 1940-1'. The letter begins 'Dear Mum Just a line to thank you for the photographs I think that one of you is very good. I have done two raids so far the last one was very good we bombed the dockyards on the Ruhr and started three lovely big fires I think that every bomber in the Air Force was over that night bombs were bursting everywhere and the A. A. fire was just like bonfire night. I think the German A. A. and their searchlights are rotten they never got anywhere near our machine. We are doing another raid tonight and I hope we give them another good plastering.' Two sentences of domestic comment conclude the letter. It is a question how the writer was able to give away so much information. No date [c.1940-1]; Sgts. Mess, Mildenhall, Suffolk. unknown
