My dear Churchill:-

I think this will interest you. It was over two weeks on its way from Berlin and coming from an American, long a resident in Germany, it has especial value. The writer was, I think, inclined to be pro-Nazi up to the time of the Munich Conference.

We are getting excellent reports of the fine job your Air Force has done the past week.

As ever yours,


The Right Honorable Winston Churchill, P. C.,

Prime Minister,

London,

England.
