21 Squadron War Diary

January 25 L.G. 98
Electric light has been connected up to the messes in our camp which, day by day, takes on a more satisfactory aspect. Capt. Fogarty, our "second string" Engineer Officer, attached to us from Wing, has returned from his tour of the forward areas in search of serviceable Junkers Aircraft the Jerries may have lost and which could be used by our forces. He and his small party were responsible for the capture of two "Itie" prisoners during their tour which took them to DERNA, BENGHASI and other points lately in enemy hands.
