		The Sick Bay was up to strength and they really didn't want me there in the way, so I spent a week wandering around Barracks with a piece of paper in my hand gradually working my way around all the department to get my discharge papers stamped to tell me I had finished.
		I was lodged in the Sick Bay leading hands mess and when time came for me to hand back my uniform, the other men were handing me their working uniforms to exchange for my uniforms, so I could hand in theirs instead.
