Ate breakfast. Hung around all morning just doing nothing. Ate chow and took ride with Wagner in the afternoon. Saw B-24 (#53) which cracked up taking off this morning. Really a bad mess - 3 guys killed. Horrible sight. I'm glad I'm through or I would be now. Visited guys in hospital. Saw there a Lt. Mike Herlya - old roommate of mine from Hondo Nav. School. He was hit in left hand on 6th mission by flak. He is now a bombadier. No mission tomorrow. Shindig tonight. Bars open till breakfast. 5 letters from Adele today - real oldies. To bed early. 10:00.
