21 Squadron War Diary

11th Feb. L.G. 98
This is King Farouk's birthday but the weather took no notice and we were again treated to a vile dust-storm which, lasting all day, made tempers short and impeded progress in building the camp. Advice has been received that our planes have found a "home" at last and are to be returned to the advanced Aircraft depot at BURG-EL-ARAB, together with a number of personnel to service and help In the overhaul of these aircraft.‍
