This is the first day I've been off parade now for quite a while. We finished our musketry yesterday but will probably go to the ranges the first of next week for a few days and then I'll be done of drill for a while. But to tell the truth there's nothing like the work to make you feel good and give you an appetite. I could eat a horse now and tell Maya when that box of candy she sent arrives it will get but short shrift as you can't get decent confectionery over here....There was a big air raid over London the other night and one of the Zepps was brought down with a crew of thirty-five. Fifteen of them were burnt to a cinder when they struck the ground. I heard today that there were five of them over Dover last night but they didn't drop any bombs.
