First day taken off by hospital group since the war started. I had sick call as usual, however, and then in afternoon went on a food detail. Was quite successful. Day as a whole really sounded and seemed like a Sunday. American we met on road said that everybody in Manila is talking of Germany’s surrender. Makes one want to believe it.
