| Robert Hodgson World War II P. O. W. Diary |
| March 17, 1945 St. Patrick's Day, football, and rugby tournaments arranged. Getting sick of sweating it out waiting for this war to end; fail to see why Jerry doesn't pack it in. March 18 - 29, 1945 Moved from 15S to 11S Jerry apparently getting all L7 personnel back together. Managed to get a middle bunk, much better than sleeping on the floor. Worse luck been put in charge of a section dishing out rations.
