Dear Douglas:

We are so pleased to hear that you are to have eight more weeks in the South and to know that you will be able to go into the branch of the service which you most desire. It sounds very interesting and we shall be waiting to hear the details of your new set-up (when you know them yourself, of course). Your trial trip must have given you some idea of what to expect and if your attacks of “acute indigestion” didn’t get you down, there’s no need to worry on that score...
