Somewhere In France
Oct 18/18

Dear Mother:

Just a line to let you know am still pretty much alive but not enjoying life as I have done the past couple weeks, as am waiting to go back to camp having finished my leave and sure had a good time as Paris is some nice city, and would not know there was a war on there.

Your loving Son
