| An early letter as Dudley has just arrived at Lake Down and has yet to get uniform and settled in. Tuesday Evening Sgt Kenny, Sgts Mess, No14 TDs Lake Down, Nr Salisbury Darling Mother, Thanks very much for letter which arrived Monday, not at all bad for posts . I am not yet allocated to an instructor am in what is called the “pool” pending a vacancy . I don’t know how long , but it may be for the rest of the week. The weather has been rotten … but I find those black rubber boots a great help – they fit over the others + are both warm + waterproof . The Sgt Mess is … food and any amount of stuff – as much as you ask for and four meals a day. At present I don’t see any difference between Cadets and NCO’s except that the former have a batman + mess with the officers = both doubtful priviledges. We all have the same machines + I am fortunate in having got into No. 1 flight group by application with Jowett where we have Avro machines – by far the best here + mostly new. Of course I don’t yet know much about the place + …… as am still a “new arrival” . No , we don’t get any kit dished out here but that really doesn’t matter much I am keeping my … tunic as it looks very “posh” with ssyants chivrons !! I don’t know of any places round here where you could stay except in Salisbury which is as I say barely 8 miles and certainly |
