Somewhere in France
Apl 25th 1918
Dear Gladys
I suppose you will be wondering what on earth has become of me. Well you must know from Elsie that I am in hospital I had to go under a minor operation and this was about a week ago I expect to be getting up in a few days anyway and then it will not be long before I shall be up with the Batt again. I hope all the people at home are well. Excuse the short note as I don’t like writing in bed.
With love
George
