Gallipoli Diary

Sunday Mar 7th 15

Divine Service 10 am
Visited mousky bazaars Cairo
during afternoon. This
quarter should be seen by
anyone visiting the city
and who is able for a time to
endure the odours & general
surroundings of this Eastern
native quarter. Also visited
several mosques including the
Blue mosque 715 year old.

Informed that I am to
act as Military Landing Officer
for 3rd reinforcements.

Detailed instructions later.

On return to camp about 7 pm
found that my tent had been
on fire & contents narrowly
escaped destruction - Evidently
caused by the eternal cigarette
smoked by my tent mate.

Moral:- Don't smoke.
