= Head and socle of an indecomposable projective group-algebra module

If $P$ is an indecomposable projective $kG$-module, then its head and socle are simple and naturally isomorphic:
$$
P/J(P)\cong\operatorname{Soc}(P).
$$
This is the identity Nakayama permutation of the <symmetric algebra (Frobenius algebra)> $kG$.
