I have just read your article Merry Christmas from Adolf Hitler (Daily Echo, May 1) about the Fuhrer’s Christmas card to The Experimental Bridging Establishment in Christchurch found in a museum in France.

I spent many a long year patrolling the old MEXE establishment in Barrack Road and often, when in the officers’ mess, I would look at the Christmas card on the wall sent to MEXE during the war.

So there must be two Christmas cards to the Bailey Bridge establishment knocking about, and I am sure many other ex-employees remember the card well.
