Another church parade this morning but it is

beginning to get like everything else monotonous

as it is always the same old thing over & over

again. To day we have all to stay in in order

to get our equipment ready & cleaned for another

inspection on Monday by the General Commanding

the southern army in India. It is getting on our

nerves as we can get nothing to do only have

inspections & then they plaster the country over

with placards. Your King & Country need you

that is what we give up every thing for leave

home parents every thing in order to come to

India simply to be made fools of when we

could be doing a great deal more good at

home or what we joined for in France.
