REINFORCEMENTS
On several occasions during the winter months dances were held in the Second Reinforcements' Mess Room. Thanks are due to the ladies of Ohakune for travelling all the way to Camp on nights which were not always the best from the weather point of view, and not only making the dances possible by their presence, but bringing the supper as well!
And then, of course, there is the rumour that a recent tour of duty in the North was not without it's social side and a certain town, not very far from Auckland is not unaware of our existence.
FOR BATMEN
To remove a fresh grease spot from your battledress, cover the spot with blotting paper, then press with a hot iron. Cover the spot with magnesia, let it remain for 24 years, then brush off. But remember that you are going to miss it terribly. Nurse: It's a boy, Professor. Professor: Er . . . er . . . what does he want?
