Progress on the 801st War Diary
Following on from my entry about my visit to Kew, I am now about half way through stranscribing the war diary of the 801st M.T. Coy. A.S.C. It took about 3 months to do the first year of the diary, bear in mind I have a full time job and a family. What I have found particularly useful was to start a topic in the 'Salonika and the Balkans' sub forum and post anything I found interesting along with queries about content. Thanks to the help of other members of the forum I have been able to interpret most of the content. I always post any names I find so that anyone searching for information will hopefully find the name. I thought an M.T. company might be boring after researching an infantry battalion but I was wrong it's just different and has helped me to get a better understanding of the Salonika campaign as whole.
