I recently acquired a simple soldier's postcard from a member of 3rd Kompanie, Infanterie Regiment 102. Nicely stamped May 18, 1917 from Zittau in Saxony.
I assume it is to the soldier's mother or perhaps wife being addressed to Frau Anna Wendler in the town of what looks like Bautren (or Bautnen), Neudorf. I can't find such a town but perhaps the names have changed as the area could now be a part of the Czech republic. The postcard has been trimmed to remove frayed edges no doubt but I don't think significant text has been lost.
If possible, I would appreciate a translation of the text of the postcard. Print German I can more or less struggle through but handwritten is a loss for me!
Many thanks in advance!
