Wulfe, good to know Switchie is still kicking around. Hopefully by now he has a proper girlfriend. I wonder what Lemoine is up to these days?
Fingers crossed for the two new arrivals. I expect them to survive at least as long as poor Victor. A lucky charm you say? Why not a mascot instead?

Rain continues to pour down over Cachy. Sergent Frougier has now been officially wiped off the chalkboard. Hopefully he will survive the war in one of the enemy prisoner camps. Perhaps he will attempt an escape?

"Take the cylinder out of my kidneys,
The connecting rod out of my brain, my brain,
From out of my arse take the camshaft,
And assemble the engine again."
