Peterhastie Posted 8 September , 2019 Share Posted 8 September , 2019 (edited) 20th & 21st October at Gheer, with the 12th Brigade, 4th Division. No idea who they came up against, but they were driven back a few hundred yards, then held there line between 5.15 a.m. and 12.30 p.m. and were then able to reoccupy there forward trenches. They returned to billets in Ploegsteert at 10 p.m. Casualties for the two days: Officers 3 killed, 2 wounded; OR's 39 killed, 92 wounded & 41 missing.
