Japs say we may have lights on until 11 at night, but must put them off if we hear air raid alarm. In evening, Rosary led by Fr Murphy. Red Cross clothing given out. The doctors were trying out their hats in the office - great joke, every one adapted his to a distinctive style. We each, men and women, received two sleeveless khaki tops. |
