The first of the now regular parades took place at eight this morning
on the ménage by the station. We all
paraded in our K.D.’s for the first time.
Khaki shirt with silver buttons, khaki
shorts, boots, stocking tops
& blue puttees. After the parade we
were told of a magazine booby trap recently found left by Jews. I then went to the lock up elected two
prisoners & took them to do some more gardening.
I'm sure this nis not really the style of Khaki Drill Uniform that Ron would have worn - but it gives the general idea... source: https://www.facebook.com/pages/British-Empire-Uniforms -1939-1943/365555366788383 |
In the afternoon I went down to the town & visited the dentist
& had one tooth filled.
This evening I went to bed early to get some sleep in before my Road
Patrol at mid-night
Barclay and I set out in the howling wind on Road Patrol at midnight , soon after it began to rain so we joined the
Prowler Guard in the dry.
A very cold morning was chosen for me to be I.C. Convoy.
I sat in the front of the truck with the driver so the heat of the
engine kept me alive.
Everything went smoothly from beginning to end.
