Military mail sent by Franz Mack to his parents showing a picture of Étain from 03.02.1915:
Dear loved ones!
Received a package from my godfather today. Alois (Franz Macks younger brother, C.M.) told me about 5 postcards, 3 of them I received already. I won’t be in town for the next 8 days. So send me one more package. After the war ends we will offset.
See you again
Franz
From the german daily war bulletin from 03.03.1915:
“Near St. Eloi, south of Ypres, an attack of two english companies was defeated.”
