April 22nd 1940

Learnt that the station commander, W/C Nixon and W/C Payne were to be posted immediately! No. 207 Squadron arrived from Cranfield to join up with us into No.12 O.T.U. They had been training on Battles with No.35 Squadron and the latter transferred to Blenheim's. Complete chaos again as no one knows how they are to be fitted in. P/O McKenzie and Foster went on navigational courses to the St. Athans or the long and short one respectively, Mackenzie will probably not return. Henderson took over the Navigation Section for No.3 Squadron. W/C Anderson ex 207 Squadron will now command training wing and G/C. Dunn the station. Got in really successful nights' flying tonight. Jana and I had at last found a house furnished but it was larger and more expensive than we wanted or could afford.
