The following article appeared in the Bowmanville, Ontario The Canadian Statesman, 10 May 1945 :
Mrs. Jack Nesbitt (nee Helen Lycett, Newcastle), 364 Simcoe St. S., Oshawa, has received the following letter from her husband Flt. Lieut. Jack Nesbitt:
Germany, April 5th. Please forgive me for not writing the last four days. I have been tearing along with Monty and his men on his finishing-up race. I needn't be here but my natural curiosity made me volunteer for it. I'm not sorry either. It has been a real experience. It is not at all comfortable but thrilling enough that the days fly by. I have only 30 of my men with me. We crossed the Rhine last week and are doing it up in style. We've had eggs and chicken. Yesterday, I made a reconnoiter for drinking water and found the nearest at a milk factory 20 miles away. Now we are having real butter—a grand change from margarine. I have been so used to it for years that I couldn't remember real butter.
I've commandeered a beer parlor for a house and we are living here. The boys are noisy in the next room tonight. We found a factory of alarm clocks. All night I hear alarms ripping out of the stillness. The bomb damage in this part of Germany is really inconceivable. I've seen nothing like it anywhere.
