Dearest Marie:
As the war ends for me, I have no regrets, I've seen too much horror.
I hope fate has been more merciful to you. Our time on Earth is brief, and mine has been filled with so much joy, that I can only be thankful for how much I've been blessed.
Most specially for the wonder you brought into my life.
This letter is my last. I've been found guilty by a military court for the death of an officer.
It was not my intention to kill him.
War makes men mad.
Though I failed Karl, I know my sacrifice has not been in vain.
I fought for my country and my liberty, my honor is assured.
Since it is the will of God to separate us on Earth, I hope we'll meet again in heaven.
Keep me in your prayers.
Your loving Papa
Always.
