The ground personnel of 12 Squadron moved off with all their equipment for their new landing ground, leaving their flying personnel to proceed in their aircraft later in the day. Dusty weather conditions prevailed throughout the day, however, and so this squadron was pleased to act as hosts to the flying crews who dined and were accommodated for the night in this camp.
Lt. Col. Irvine proceeded via CAIRO for KASFAREET this morning to inspect Baltimore aircraft, which type of aircraft we hope to fly in the not too distant future in operations.
No operational flying today. One Balti. on a comm. flight to TRIPOLI and back. Oprep. No. 215.
Casualty return and R.O. No. 14/43.
Major HUNT hard at trying to get the new Adj. lined up as soon as he possibly can. Still no news of the move of aircraft.
Despite good weather no operations were carried out to-day. Nothing of importance happened during the day.
