Thanks for the tip - no sign of it on the NA site either. ..

I am pretty sure the 1/10th Bn Manchester Regt (TF) war diary for this period is MIA. The nearest you will get is the Brigade Diary (126th Inf Bde) which covers the period in considerable detail. It is available on Ancestry.co.uk but not freely available on TNA's website. The 42nd Div diaries were never digitised by TNA. I understand the Ancestry digitisation versions are available via TNA at Kew but not on their website. All part of the restricted access to these 'national' assets. Apparently this is progress.

Ref WO 95/4315
