<p>[Page 61]</p><p>Sunday, 24 June 1917<br />Again on guard occasioned by my speaking on parade on Monday last and for which I was awarded 3 guards. Such penalties for petty offences are more petty spiteful than those given at school. One would think that men are pupils in an infants school. Day was beautifully calm.</p><p>Monday, 25 June 1917<br />My post on guard was Cells. The prisioners last night gave us some trouble &amp; threw water over the Military Police on guard on 3 occasions.&nbsp; Had to parade a man of our guard to the C.O. for being asleep on guard. Fixed some photos. Day again beautifully fine.</p>
