21 Squadron War Diary
3rd January Bu Amud
All work at a standstill. Rain showers all day long. Tents are leaking and blankets are damp; everybody busy making their quarters as waterproof as possible . Naturally the dust, rain and cold are all combining to have an adverse effect on the whole squadron . The mechanics servicing the aircraft under most difficult conditions are putting up a magnificent show . A number of planes are due for engine change and with all these tasks and many others on hand the bad weather is holding up things considerably.
