sotonmate Posted 1 May , 2010 Share Posted 1 May , 2010 m This Battalion was part of 82 Brigade of 27 Division which was in the Battles of Second Ypres in 1915. The War Diary is at the National Archives under WO95/2266. They may have been part of all the modes you quote in that month as units were often rotated through duties to give them a break from the Front. They were certainly at the Battle of Frezenberg from 8-13 May. Do you have specific reasons for wanting to read this ? If you have a soldier you seek it might be fruitful to add his name and number here. Sotonmate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
