Wartime Diaries - please help

Dear Wartime Diaries subscribers,

Some good news is that I've been sent a new diary. It was written by Eric Macnider, and has a brief entry for most days of internment.

Please can you help me to post it on to the website? Then it will be added to the daily email message you receive.

For each hand-written page there are two jobs to do.

1. Transcribe.
Carefully type up exactly what is written in the diary. So for the attached example page, the transcription would begin:

April 1944

1.
Cigs, 2pkts. 45 sen each.
Issue oil, sugar.
Heath.

S2.
Palm Sunday.
Brown / Ream.
Roll call down ((sp?)) by Bl Rgn ((sp?)) 8am + 9.30pm
Drown / Jenner

3.
Septic tank queue Bl.18, I.Q.
Issue curry powder.

(Note the attached page is an average page. Some will be easier to transcribe, some will be harder.)

2. Proof read and post to the website.
Check the transcription for any mistakes, then post the transcribed text to the website, one entry per day.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

There are 56 pages to transcribe, so that's 112 jobs to do. BUT... there are over 200 subscribers to the Wartime Diaries, so if we each do one job, it will be finished in no time.

If you can help, please reply and mark the boxes below to let me know what you can help with. Then I'll send you a page to work on, together with instructions.

Yes, I can help:
   [ ] transcribe a page
   [ ] proof read & post a page to the website

Thanks for your support,

Regards, David
