I am attaching a scan of a cover addressed to the Pay Rolls Officer, LPTB, which I identify as per the title.
The franking is FPO 640, which I believe is a Canadian mark for the Lines of Communication Postal Unit, previously for the 2nd Canadian Corps in NW Europe.
My question is why would a Canadian (presumably) soldier be writing to this addressee?

It is possible the person was attached to one of the allied contingents attached to the Canadian Army in Northern France.
I know the following units were attached to the Canadian in and around November 1944.
1st Polish Armoured Division, August 1944-May 1945
1st Czechoslovak Armoured Brigade, October–November 1944
51st (Highland) Infantry Division, August 1944 (Not sure when it transferred to 30 Corps in late 1944, but possible before November)
