Nice find and it certainly gives the lie to the usual IB accounts that they were all good chaps and totally committed to the cause.

Thanks, nice post.
Sid Hamm's diary is worth a read, even if it is a short one. He was one of the youngest Brigadiers and seemed to spend most of his time trying to get sent home. I cannot say that I blame him.
