Grin When I was at school in the early days of the war we always had to carry a gas mask. At our school it was taken so seriously that we got the cane if seen without the pesky thing! I got half way there one day and had forgotten it, so I turned around and ran home for it. I then also had to run back to school since you also got the cane for being late! Of course I fell over and arrived back at school late but not quite mortally wounded. However, it did get me out of trouble as they had to clean me up and bandage the knee. I suspect they didn't have the heart to cane a poor wounded soldier after that! Dorothy -- Dorothy Gibbs (in Hertfordshire UK)
