Ahhhh, thank you! Of course, FW, it's all about the army *sigh* ...I remember you quoting that letter to AW, and it was awful even then, but thank you for bringing in the context, now it brings with it a special kind of intergenerational awfulness...
Debts: *nods* Ah, thanks, yeah, that's interesting, that on one hand (for a change, as you say) in some ways it does seem rather reasonable for FW to be upset (if maybe not that upset!)... and on the other hand, kind of not.
I can see being told "no one cares if you live or die," even if you do see through it rationally... could still do a number on your head psychologically, especially since no one is actually around to refute it (except, we hope, Wilhelmine (if the smuggling letters thing is true) -- and Fredersdorf!)
