There is an advertisement to be seen in the Middle East these days
There is an advertisement to be seen in the Middle East these days, It reads: LEAVE CAMP - WHERE LEAVE REALLY IS LEAVE. NO REVEILLE, FATIGUES OR DRESSING UP.
The advertisement appears in a seaside resort on the Palestine coast, and this camp is the latest step towards providing the troops in the Middle East, who are unable to get home on leave, with a place to relax from the rigours of fighting.
Prices at the camp are extremely low and are controlled. Transport meets the troops at the station and takes them to the camp free of charge, Beds, blankets. sports kit and other holiday gear are all provided. The camp is run by British staff, ATS, Italian prisoners of war and European women assistants
Servicemen can get up when they like in the morning and if they so choose, they can
stay in bed;. Excellent food is served by cheerful Italian prisoners who like the work.
There is the best of bathing in the blue Mediterranean, tennis, football, cricket, reading, writing, new film
shows every evening, concerts, dancing and a fun fair.
Picture shows: Corporal C.M. Wilson of Waitera, New Zealand cannot resist the temptation to brew up some of the mussels he caught on the rocks.
