Mission #40 to Brod, Yugoslavia. Supposed to hit in Bucharest area but weather prevented it. Bombed Marshalling yards with very good results. Got loster than heck but found myself. Total time was 5:40, on oxygen 3˝ hours. Ship #74 again. Temp. -21°. Good mission.

Today is Mom and Pop's anniversary. God bless 'em all.

Stand down for tomorrow. Will welcome the change. No mail came in today. Saw Gildersleeve in "G's Ghost." Corny as hell. Saw "Sex Hygiene" for the 'steenth time. Very tired and very stinky. Air raid alert today. Gun, gas mask, tin hat.
