mtaylor Posted 3 February , 2014 Share Posted 3 February , 2014 Would anyone have the war diary for 11th Division or any of its constituent brigades (32/33/34) or battalions that would confirm its position in the line on 21 March 1918? It may be on the Lys or further south - Marzingarbe-Hulluch. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
