To Comrade Quartermaster TAK DE LOTT

Greetings Ah TAK, I have been assigned an operation and would like to take some landmines along with me, whatever you can spare of course.   I am sending 3 bottles of French Brandy which were liberated by my men recently and which no doubt you can find a use for.  Oh, and a few yards of demolition wire, say 20 yards, would be very handy.   I am hoping the operation will result in the capture of some splendid items for your stores and if there is anything you particularly need please let me know.

Your friend and countryman
