Original Toronto Star caption: 1. On Furlough are Gunner Bill Swirski and Leading Aircraftman Jack Burns. Every Penny is precious. Since they are travelling only a short distance they stopped by a friendly sing; erected by Simcoe Young Men's club and hoped. Sure enugh Delmar Misner stopped his car; but said: Gee; fellows; I'd like to help you but only last week a truck driver was fined in Toronto for carrying unlawful passengers.
