15 Jun 1945, Diary of George Gerrard in Stanley Internment Camp Hong Kong
Submitted by Alison Gerrard on Sun, 2020-11-01 12:46Book / Document:Date(s) of events described:Fri, 15 Jun 1945I was discharged from Tweed Bay Hospital this afternoon and am feeling a wee bit exhausted after the long walk from the hospital to our room here. Davie Bone and C. Greig ((probably G. Craig, who shared a room with Bone and Gerrard)) came down and carried my things back. I was given splendid attention in the hospital and am very grateful for all that the doctors and sisters did for me.
