Up at 6:15 and roll call at 7:00. Our bags came in at last and we spent the morning taking our cleaning out & I washed my clothes. Before lunch we had a lecture on chemical warfare & had sniff test of 3 of the gases. After lunch we drilled & then went to the theater for a picture on enemy information. I stayed in tonite although I could have had a pass. I wrote three letters & wrote 7 days entries in the diary. After having a couple of beers at the canteen came back & hit the hay at 9:30.

Started getting ready to leave here for we have to move to Walton where the field of the 8th RCN Weather Squadron is at & will work from there. Had most of the stuff packed by midnight & will finish in the morning.
