Scope and Contents

Letter from Captain Cyril Falls [Military Correspondent of the Times] to WSC thanking him for his reply to his previous letter, which "written under the influence of disappointment, was probably petulant and unbalanced". He comments on the German offensive [battle of the Bulge], on the respective abilities of Field Marshal Sir Harold Alexander [later 1st Lord Alexander of Tunis, Supreme Allied Commander Mediterranean Theatre], Field Marshal Sir Bernard Montgomery [Commander 21st Army Group] and General Dwight D Eisenhower [Supreme Allied Commander Western Europe, United States Army], and on British and United States representation in the command. He concludes by expressing his personal admiration for the action WSC has just taken in Greece. Signed typescript.
