for

07 September 1944

 R.C.A.F. Amiens / Glisy, France 

The weather was decidedly against our two vehicle convoy this morning and was considerably attributable towards the consistently muddy windshields. We were greeted by the populace of Brussels like we have never been greeted before. The kissing of both cheeks by females was a new experience, the men shook hands, the children sought autographs and the whole throng handed out fruit and beer to us. The Churchill "V" for victory sign given by the Belgians was quite prominent throughout our travel in Belgium. Towards the late afternoon, the weather cleared up somewhat but not sufficiently to carry out any operations.
