At six o’clock each morning the bugle calls the men from their army cots in the long barrack buildings, each housing from forty to sixty men.
Approximately ten minutes later, roll call is blown. We then make our bunks and wash up in preparation for breakfast, which is at 6:45 a.m. At 7:30 inspection is blown after which we pile into trucks and go to work. The journey to the scene of work is no pleasure ride at the present time, as we are usually cold and cramped in the trucks.
Since we do not return for luncheon (as is possible when the truck is close at hand), we eat out on the work project, beside a roaring fire. When the day’s job is finished, we come back to camp, usually before four in the afternoon. We then take a shower, change our clothes, eat, and are then ready for a long evening of recreation.
