Hello!

Here again my question

Where did the Royal Welsh Fusiliers spend Xmas 1914? The one I'm looking for is Cpt. C.I. Stockwell. He said there were Saxons opposite. Sorry, don't know neither his battalion nor his company.

Please help soon.

thanks

Stockwell's diary states that the Battalion's right was upto the houses of Frelinghien, with the Germans occupying the brewery 150 yds away (Dec 3rd to 26th). The Germans opposite were part of the 133rd Saxon Infantry Regiment.

Dave.
