The regimental history doesnt have much to say about these days. It notes that, on the 24th, they cleared the park of Bossuyt Chateau and made two "very gallant but unsuccessful" attempts to cross the canal (?) at locks 3 & 4. They eventually succeeded in the afternoon of the 25th, joining up with the 4th Bn.
