1914 : September Training Little Baddow The Marconi Masts - to Charly

Little Baddow 
Essex

Dear Charly

I am still here and I have no idea whether you are home. PC home to forward. I am very fit and this week have been made a signaller. I like it and the work is much easier than Battalion drills. I know almost as much as the others and will go in for exam in May for badges We work hard and the discipline is greatest but I like it and hope to go abroad soon. Will write later. Hoping to hear from you

1914: 15th September Grays - to Alec

15^th Sept 1914

Tuesday 5.30

Dear Alec

I thought you might like a card showing you the place we live at. It is not half so pretty as the photo, but is a little livelier than Little Baddow. We are now waiting for orders to return there. I expect to go Wednesday morning. I hope you are well.

Best Love to all

Tom
