George Beck: December 20, 1943
Chef gave speech to civilians telling them that Germans can’t lose. After England is finished America is next. Received couple of letters from the wife and photograph of Arthur, couldn’t recognise him at all, how he’s altered. Wife says she went out will Rex for a drink. Roll on for God’s sake. Nearly every time she writes now she’s drinking somewhere, don’t know what to think, I love her and trust her, suppose everything will be all right. God bless her.
—George Beck,1st Battalion The Duke of Wellington's Regiment, prisoner of war (diary)
