Letters from 'Vi' [Caulk] to her sweetheart, Reg Cracknell, serving with the 5th Battn, Suffolk Regiment at various addresses in the UK during WW2 and as a POW after the capture of Singapore in February 1942. They are affectionate ,newsy letters, describing, but not in any great detail, everyday events in Vi's life, her friends, occasional trips out, dances attended and films seen. She also refers, especially in 1941 to the regular bombing raids by 'Jerry' on Yarmouth and its surroundings. The letters are dated from Oct 1940 to Feb 1942 (around the time of the fall of Singapore, though there is no mention of Singapore in her letters and the last word she had heard from Reg before then, was that it was 'boiling hot' in Capetown, when he was en-route to the Far East.), Mar-May and Oct 1943, and again a flurry of letters as he was returning home from Sep-Dec 1945. Most of the letters in the first album were filed with their accompanying envelopes, but the arrangement of the second album was more chaotic, with only13 envelopes surviving, all from the Nov-Dec 1945 period, along with their undated, but presumably accompanying letters.
