14th January 1945.


I have just been reading my father's diary for 1945, that I have inherited.

It was his 33rd birthday on 14th January 1945, and he was based over in Cairo during that part of the war.

He writes - "In evening went to see 'The Sky's the Limit' (F Astaire). Had seen it before, but the tune 'My Shining Hour' was lovely"

I thought I would look that film up on here - so here I am, just writing down what happened in Cairo in 1945, while my Dad was there in the army.

You are very welcome!

and thanks for replying on this thread . . reading it has just made my Dad seem a little bit more 'alive' again.

I do miss him still, so thanks.
