ororkep Posted 6 May , 2019 Share Posted 6 May , 2019 (edited) You will find out precisely if you google 'AWM4 13/7/18' (part 1 & part 2) and download the freely available Australian war diaries. They were under 35 HAG in 1ANZAC Corps, a component within the Southern Counter Bty Double Group from 10th Sept.

Ron Clifton Posted 11 May , 2019 Share Posted 11 May , 2019 Like many artillery battery diaries, it does not seem to have survived. The only one in the NA index is this: WO 95/216 146 Heavy Battery Royal Garrison Artillery 1916 Dec- 1917 Feb, May Have a look at the diary Paul (ororkep) suggested.
