all day with a fairly heavy ground haze. The morning show was
cancelled and the Squadron released late in the afternoon so that our
efforts to assist the Second British Army were thwarted. Two
photographers visited our dispersal and recorded our informal method

today and had a string of excuses for not being able to return
yesterday. F/O J. Stitts also returned this evening following his
recall from the Fighter Leaders course and his union into holy
matrimony which naturally resulted in a lot of merciless ribbing on
the part of the pilots.
