Dear Daddy and Mum,  

How are you doing? I hope that you and Rico are having a nice times together.

I have been here now for 1 week and already I have had to dig trenches for hours ? it feel like a very long times since i saw you.

living in the trenches is hard as the sticky mud mays it diffusing to walk any where? I spend most of my building walls to protect us .

Love you son Hamza.

Sadly, Hamza died in 1914 on the battlefield in Ypres, Belgium. He never got to grow up and come home.
