If training was 8 plus 4 weeks and 2 weeks for home leave (all estimates roughly 98 days) and we arrived Lagos Nov 6, 1965.  I don't remember all the MSU students returning, and we were in a dorm so something is not right.    Current guess is that we had 14 weeks of training and maybe 4 weeks of leave. This would mean we started training in early July.  Not sure except when I arrived Lagos.
