Daily Bulletins, June 1945
306th Bomb Group--Thurleigh, England

Daily bulletins, like special orders, were published daily throughout the war and numbered sequentially from January 1st. They were informational bulletins providing the men with important information to know regarding what was happening around the base. At a minimum the daily bulletin would tell the hours that blackout was to be imposed on the base, list who was assigned as Officer of the Day for each of the next seven days, and detail officers who would be in charge of liberty runs for the next seven days.Then there would be notes of general interest to everyone such as war bond drives, blood drives, church services, lost and found items, or such important items as "Transportation for dates of Officers attending 'Left Over Party' will leave from Officers Red Cross Club, Bedford, at 2000." Our collection of daily bulletins is incomplete but covers from December 1943 through September 1945. These daily bulletins are a fun read and provide a background of what it was like at Station 111 and Thurleigh as the war was proceeding.
