A fine day. The first thing I did was break my glasses, then burn my finger.
The men have all gone out on drill.
We had a real bean for dinner, then I walked to Ligny. It is five kilometers and it took me forty minutes. Got my glasses out of my trunk and took some films to be developed then back to Headquarters and got some lunch, bread, butter, applesauce, and cocoa, then home. Got back to Longaux at five. Went home to my billet and got a hot water bottle and went to bed.
