9 Jun 1944, R. E. Jones Wartime diary

Heavy storm early am. & showery all day.

Paper keeps up the usual note re our hopeless efforts at trying to win the war, it seems that the word “annihilate” and its derivatives was coined in order to describe the fate  of the men opposed to the Axis.

There are internees who still think we have another eighteen months to exist in this Camp that the Germans will still be fighting well into next year. Time alone will tell of course but I sincerely hope they are wrong.

Result of Zindel’s visit negative re parcels & repatriation. Bran, beans & allowance to come. Black-out & Curfew orders more stringent.

With Steve pm.

4 Pkts. cigs issued.
