Looked over base today and it is quite nice except for a few things. The English don't go in for elaborate plumbing - we have 4 wash basins for 300 officers and they are 3/4 of a mile from any of the quarters. We walk 1 mile to mess and must wear dress uniform for the evening meal they are certainly making this a gentleman's war.
We are allowed 1 bar of soap, 1 package of gum & 2 bars of candy per week and as yet there is no stationary available so very few letters. Incidentally, I helped censor mail this evening - it is quite an experience.
The 1944 Journal of WWII Pilot Bill Callison. Follow the adventures of Bill as written in the daily journal he kept. While this is 64 years after his entries into the journal his mother gave him for Christmas in 1943, you will be able to experience WWII England and France. This is truly a family treasure that I am sure you will enjoy.
