Monday 4th December 1939
Bitter weather begins! It was stilly cold yesterday but today there was a biting northerly wind.
The battery having been reorganised I now parade with the Battery HQ squad again instead of with “A” Troop. I’m now with Hignall (now a sergeant), Ling and Underhill and Andrews. I wonder if this means I shall not have to polish my respirator brass work any more? It is possible that my new officer (Adams, the signals officer) may not have such stupid ideas on the subject as Luient. Dawnay. How I hate that quite unnecessary task. And it looks so bad too, being an Army “crime”.
