up at 0645A as usual. Worked at the lab again or shall I say hung around all day. The fellows are nice and friendly but just like most of the gang at Langly lazy as hell. All they do is sit around and shoot the B.S. I've been getting my nose into everything I can because M/Sgt. Smith and I'll be the only ones here to run the lab when this next group leaves. Rushing is helping me all he can. Again I practiced on the trumpet until my lip gave out. I wrote a letter and then listened to the radio at the Rec. hall until it was time to go to bed 2330A.

I ordered Helen Beth a Bulova watch today through the P.X. It's a thirty dollar job but I get 30% off. Also a small knife like Clayton had at home. I've seen all the shows so there's just no place to go.
