24 Apr 1943, Leo Landau's wartime diary

Submitted by Brian McDouall on

I woke at 6.05 due to the child-like prattle of Weil. A lovely morning very fresh. No parcels today but instead tomorrow, for Easter Sunday. Saw snaps which were taken in this camp and placed my order for a few @ .40 each.

Told by Walsh of a conversation he overheard by certain of Hopkin's friends who boldly behind my back - what they will do to Jimmy & the kitchen when they get out. Time will show and be the judge - these pompos fools! 

Our turn for hut cleaning every board & kit was taken out. A througher cleaning. We must have killed several thousand bugs at the very least!! 

Listened to Flight Lt Gray on his experiences when the world's record long distance flight from Egypt to Australia was made.

Blackout tonight. At 9.30 pm the camp Commandant wishes to convey his appreciation on the camp for the effective blackout.
