Letter from Jack, 1939

It’s unknown because I don’t know where I have been taking.

15th January 1939

Hi mom and dad.

I am sitting here and writing a letter to you. This is like hell. They punish me all the time, I can’t sit alone because they always are watching me, but now i’ve find a place were I can sit a little time and write, until they find me and let me do something else. I dont wanna be here. So sometimes I just find a place and think. I miss you so much and i can’t stop thinking about you. I’ve also falling in love, in a girl called Emily. She amazing, but I dont think she likes me.

Acctually i dont know where I am. But its January and it’s pretty hot here. So I guess i’m still here in Australia, or really close to the country. And somebody told me that it will soon rain a lot, so yup I think its Australia im caught in. But thanksfully they will put me free when I get 18 years old. They treats me very bad, they punch me if I dont do as they tell me to do. So I look forward to I get 18 years so I can get out of this shitty place. They treat me like an animal indeed, they dont do anything good for me! But im happy that they let me write this letter to you, because I cant wait to see you to again. I cant really remeber you so much but your faces will never disappear from my mind.
