War Journal - Oct. 26, 1944

26-Oct
Thursday
Not much happened lately. We have been on alert every day for two weeks without pulling a mission. The sun has not been out in a full week. We have worked hard every day building floor & walls for our tent. Went into town yesterday to buy lighting fixtures for it - so now we are pretty comfortable. The French expect it to snow here soon. A Lt. was killed here yesterday by a booby trap. Our first casualty by that method. For the past four days we have had air raid warnings but so far no bombs have dropped. It may be different if the weather ever clears.
