Zuara
No operational flying today. Oprep. No. 229.We were all lined up ready to go off on a show when it was cancelled owing to bad weather. The Squadron played soccer against 8 C.C.S. this afternoon and beat them 7-0. A big mail came up this afternoon which cheered up everyone.At about six this evening Col. MARTIN came over in a hurry to tell us to disperse all the aircraft as much as possible as there was a distinct possibility that we will be bombed this evening. Accordingly the aircraft were scattered over the aerodrome as well as the dispersal.‍
