R.C.A.F.
Lantheuil, France
Low
cloud and haze all morning partially clearing up in the
afternoon. S/L Norsworthy and F/O Hewson proceeded on leave this
afternoon, therefore, F/L Fiset is our temporary C.O.
No
operations were carried out which gave the pilots an opportunity
to assist in decorating the Mess for to-night's party, to which Canadian
and English nurses were invited. Late in the afternoon, we had a
little rain. The party turned out to be quite a success, except
that there was a shortage of females and the alcohol ran out too
early. The pilots who proceeded to Boscombe on the 2nd, returned
late this afternoon, but no official report has yet been
received on the G.P. bombs which failed to explode on the
operation of July 17th.
