today went to Alsace-Lorraine to attack Mulhouse and Belfort near the Ruhr. Last night more mines were also laid and in the attack on the convoy westward bound near Helgoland an escort vessel blew up as well. The Russians have bypassed Sandomierz and in Italy our troops are 2 miles from Pontassieve east of Florence. Palembang, the attack on which meant a round flight of 3600 miles, has one of the biggest oil refineries of the Far East and it is estimated that repairing the damage will take a year. 2 announcements one about foot and mouth disease in East Riding of Yorkshire and one from Ministry of Food to the effect that cod liver oil and orange juice is available on the coupons which are valid till the 19th August 1944.
