L.G. 212, Kasfareet, Egypt

Shortly after the arrival of the squadron at this station, a letter was addressed to Air Headquarters, Egypt pointing out that the camp site allowed for no dispersal of tentage and that the disadvantages of this confined area were apparent.
This minute resulted in a visit to-day by an official of Air H. Q. Egypt who viewed the camp site. He passed on the information that very little could be done at the present moment owing to a shortage of sites suitable for squadrons.‍
