This card was sent in 1915 by Dick to his friend Jack. Dick gives his address as 19 Siege Comp, 4 Section, Lydd, and promises his friend a long letter which he will write when he is next on guard all night- this gives some idea of the lack of activity in this location. The card was sent 15th March 1915
The transcribed text reads:
‘19 Siege Company, 4 Section, Lydd, Kent’
‘Dear Jack, Sorry I cant get the card I spoke about they are all sold but you see I arrived back safe. will write a letter next time I am on guard all night so you see what I am on. Best wishes to you both Dick’
‘Mr John Chalker, 10 Bradford Rd, Sydenham, S.E, London
