June 1, 1944 (Thursday)
Really punk last night – my cold is really bad. Doc wanted to put me in hospital but I didn’t go and about noon it cleared up a bit.
I got blueforms from Barb and Janke and wrote to Barb tonight. Played ball with some of the screens again this evening.
Got fitted for chutes today too.
