Submitted by Admin on Fri, 01/23/2015 - 14:22

Another rotten day, cold & wet.

No 16. very prominent in dreams last night.

Tokyo bombed 100 planes 19th. Taiwan bombed 600 planes 16th & 18th. US forces landed on Iwojima 19th. No E. news whatever.

Vessel about 8,000 tons arrived 7.30am on which 2 white crosses were painted. Probably the “Awa Maru” with the US R.C. supplies & we are all awaiting confirmation.
