Example of a table and my poor memory. Need to look up these things?
Dates
Dates I am always forgetting:
Training
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.
