This is an entry in a year-long project to post-blog the demobilisation experience for British servicemen at the end of the Second World War. See here for an introduction to the project and here for a brief overview of the demobilisation process.
James Lansdale Hodson's diary: "According to a works manager in Sheffield, the men are now about 70-75 per cent as efficient in output as pre-war. He says: 'They feel, 'we’ve won the war, haven't we? Are we to go on slaving for ever as if the war was still on?'"
