Fine, hot, cloudy.

Rigged mosquito net.

Ground rice for bread.

Allies pushed Goering's Div. back. Our forces 5 klms east of Rome  (4th) Air-raid alarm of yesterday coincides with US raid on Kwongchauwan. Jap paper really very heartening although that is not their intention.

Choir practice 5-6pm. Steve at practice till 7.45pm.

Lovely moonlight night. I hope we are together again pal by or before next June's full moon light.

Several internees went to Q.M. for X-ray. ((Probably Queen Mary Hospital))
