| 9 Apr 1944, R. E. Jones Wartime diary Posted: 07 Mar 2014 06:14 AM PST Book / Document: Date(s) of events described: Sun, 9 Apr 1944 Thick low mist all day. Dry. With Steve pm. Talked about food as usual. (Americans landed at Mirs Bay & local Japs seem very moody lately?) Temp. dropped a little. Oh! for some good news, real stuff that we can believe. Surely next E. Sun? I can look back to this entry in more comfortable & happier surroundings & with a full tummy. |
