The air raid shelters … [were] a series of walls built along the main bastion wall and slabs of sandstone placed across the top to form a roof … the boys … would not go to them until they were ordered to by the senior officers…However we were extremely lucky and up to this time we had not had any casualties. The guardian angel must have been above our barracks day and night. During the period of our heaviest attacks … we had our barbers shop hit … we were confined to our gun pit and it wasn’t policy to go out, I later learned that the only casualties were minor ones, a few cuts and bruises caused by falling masonry. After the boys had inspected the crater it was generally agreed that it must have been a 1,000lb bomb [500kg].8
