Flew
a few minutes this morning but was discontinued as weather was
very poor. Lecture this afternoon by F/L Crichton on the history
and composition of the German Air Force. W/C Davidson, DFC, (1)
our
Wing Commander, was there, and after the lecture gave us a few
examples of how the "Y" service works. F/L Crichton
informed us that we should spend more time in the I. Section,
(Intelligence
Section)
which is a very good idea, but as yet, there is very little gen
to be had there, but as soon as I. Section gets organized, all
our pilots will be spending every available moment there.
We
have much to learn, and according to the Winco, we have very
little time to do it. He has intimated on several occasions that
we will be on Ops in a month, so we will really have to get
cracking.
