Overcast, colder. SE wind gusty.

Rec. boot polish & razor blade in draw for toilet gear.
Allies seem to have reached the Rhine.
Mrs K.S. altered my overall. ((Who could this be? It sounds like Mrs Kennedy-Skipton, but the current notes suggest she stayed out of Stanley Camp throughout the occupation. Barbara Anslow writes: "the only Mrs K.S. I can find in Greg Leck's list is Mrs Kathleen Seymour whose husband was also in Stanley, they had a young baby."))
Hara & black-market goods arrived in lorry for Blumenthal.
Rec. Mar 44, from home.
