Weather pretty good.

Tue Aug 2 and Wed Aug 3, 1944:
Weather same, mostly rain and the rivers are good. We still have a rumor, which is pretty strong, that we will be moving from this camp sometime this month.

Thur Aug 4, 1944:
Weather fair. It rained during the night and it was dull most of the day. Looks like the Russians will win this war after all.

Weather clear and bright. There is to be some boxing matches to-night and rumor has it that Max Schmelling will be visiting the camp.

Another perfect day. First good day since the Whitsun sports. This is the August bank holiday and the fellows made up some floats as they did on Whitsun and had a parade.

Sun Aug 7, 1944:
Weather warm and bright. We saw a fellow bail out of his hydroplane though there was no air raid. We did see nineteen of our bombers fly by on their way to Breslau. Some of the Americans who were shot down the other day reached the camp this afternoon. Those nineteen were American bombers.

Weather hot, bulk issue of half a tin of jam, milk and meat for two, not much.

Tue Aug 9, 1944:
Weather was hot, because of the wind it was really dusty.

Thur Aug 11, 1944:
Fine weather all day.

Fri Aug 12, 1944:
Weather clear and hot. The football game between England and Scotland had a lot of publicity. Some of the fellows had their benches out at 4:30 in the morning so they would have the best seats. The game was pretty good, England won five to one.

Weather sunny, then rain.

Sun Aug 14, 1944:
Weather real good, with possible sunbathe again.
