11 Sherwoods

Morning

A while ago I purchased from the NA the War Diary for the

11th Battalion, Sherwood Foresters

which should have gone up to the end of October 1917.

It does not, the whole of that month is missing.

I have just had an e-mail from them in reply to my query and they have accepted it is missing. It will need to be scanned and they will forward it to me (it was the bit I wanted !!)

Just in case anyone else has purchased it or is contemplating purchasing it,

Graeme

Graham, several years ago GREENWOODMAN who is/was a member of this forum gave me his type copy of the 11th Battalion War Diary.

This is the PDF - but not sure it will work Oct17.pdf

PM/email me if it doesn't

Oct17.pdf

Morning Mike,

Many thanks for the War Diary, most useful, very good of you to post it, cheers.

At the risk of 'pushing my luck', would it be possible to post the War Diary for October 1918, I have a man wounded on 24th and died on 25th,

Many thanks again,

Graeme

Hi again Mike,

Just been mooching around your websites, most interesting (grovel, grovel),

Whilst I accept this is another of my 'awful' pictures (I always think a poor picture is better than none),

here is what I have on Private 93793 Cleaver, mentioned on your site

From the newspapers

An officer wrote to the family stating,

“Your son was in my company. He volunteered for a raid in which the company was taking part, and was hit by a machine bullet in No Man’s Land.”

Regards,

Graeme

Morning Mike

Cheers, many thanks for that, appreciate it.

As I say, if you want the other pics of 6th men, there's only 3 I think, PM me your e-mail address and I'll send them.

Thanks again for the WDs,

Regards,

Graeme
