To Chretien du Penmarch, Brevet Brigadier, GDMD:
Mon General,
      It appears that Rascle beat me to the punch in announcing our intent
to take the troops under our command to the front next month. He speaks of a
training exercise but I had envisioned a scouting expedition by light cavalry
units to assess the enemy's weakest points for the Summer campaign. Perhaps I
should say no more  as to our true intent, as I may already have said too
much.  We humbly beseech you to look favorably upon our efforts in support of
our King. We will complete our plans at Col. Marseile's soiree.
                                                                Best New
Year's Wishes.
                                                                Pierre la
Granouille, Major GDMD
