FROM THE C.O. TO YOU

I reghet that it has not 7' been possible for me to speak to all members ‘of the Works Service Units before my departure. . It is .to those men out on the : various, jobs that I wish to express my appreciation of our association over the past two-three months. The Works Service Units were formed and brought here to carry out a-fairly extensive programme of work « This 'has now' been considerably curtailed* It is unnecessary for me to stress the fact that in war the best laid plans are never more than provisional, and? therefore, such changes as have I occurred in our plans have to be accepted, not as something unusual, but as j part of the way things go., • One of the greatest traits of NoZ ? ers» chai-actor ,is the f ability bo readily re-adapt \ themselves to meet changed circumstances, and undoubtedly the possession of this-trait has a lot to do with thq N ? Z’ers. success as soldiers. You are confident in your skill, a quiet confidence bred of your job”, you have ' done a good job so far - you will do no less in the future and I am confident that -you all possess resources of skill, will and determination upon which you can draw to meet any demands placed upon you, I, as your 000., appreciate the spirit with which you have faced ar.d overcome past diffic-

ulties, and I have ©very confident)© in your future. I I am proud to have been associated with you, and I greatly rogret leaving you. — we came over together, it was ,my hope that we carry on together, but as that is not possible at the moment I have to be content .with wishing you all the best A
