Figuring out War diaries...

Recommended Posts

On this Page from the 2nd Battalion Suffolk regiment July War Diaries.  i was wondering what it means when it says 40R killed Or 10R killed   or it could me 4 or killed or 1 or killed i have no idea what it means. and why it would not be stated on the wounded.
