Dear Mother- :
Am just in Paris for the day on a 24-hour permission which the section was lucky enough to get today and having a fine time.
I think we are going back into action again with our new division the first part of the next week, which I hope comes up to the last place for interest and excitement.
Am enclosing a picture, the only one I can seem to discover of the profligate son on the field of battle. I hope you get it tho it may not arrive. If I get one in which you can see something of me beside a blotch I will send it Will write more when I get back to the contonment again. With love, Paul
P.S. Found better picture sending it instead. The little valley of which I told you is directly behind me underneath. (?)
