Letter to Mr Aitchison from Royal Navy Chaplain

A letter to Robert Aitchison's father on Robert being MIA after landing on Crete. The letter reads:

Dear Mr Aitchison,

By now you will know that your son Mr Aitchision is missing, beleived prisoner. 

Please accept the deep sympathy of us all in your painful suspense.

I pray that he will remain in good spirits in which he departed for Crete and that a year at war will bring him to you again. 

May God strengthen you in your Trouble. 

Yours very sincerely

Chaplain. R.N
