21 Squadron War Diary

July 14th El Firdan
The fact that this is (Fighting) France’s National Day appears to be the only event of note to-day. The sounds of revelry emanating from the Free French Camp and the condition of a few of our own personnel who were unwise enough to accept an invitation to their mess indicate that the fall of the Bastille was not forgotten, even et El Firdan!

Transcriber's Notes
