GraemeClarke Posted 5 November , 2014 Share Posted 5 November , 2014 Morning Ian The War Diary has a block booking for the period 15th to 21 November 1914 In trenches at Rue Tilloy. It note 'baptism of fire in this war. 1 Rifleman killed and 1 mortally wounded.' Merely notes usual sniping and "A" Company suffered from the fire from HE shell. Regards, Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
