David_Blanchard Posted 10 May , 2024 Posted 10 May , 2024 I cannot find a war diary for the Commander of Royal Engineers V Corps for 1916- January to July. Is there one in existence? David
Admin Bob Davies Posted 10 May , 2024 Admin Posted 10 May , 2024 David, WO 95 743 to WO 95 766 I France V Corps are the numbers from Ron's list, but I did not see anything naming 'Commander of Royal Engineers'. There is 'Commander RA' in there so one would expect to find the Engineers in there. Regards, Bob.
brianmorris547 Posted 10 May , 2024 Posted 10 May , 2024 David The WD should be under Chief Engineer but I can not find one for 5 Corps Brian
cozendon Posted 10 May , 2024 Posted 10 May , 2024 The Royal Engineers museum only seem to have a copy of the War Diary for the dates 1 January 1917 - 30 September 1918 and 19 March 1919 - 7 April 1919. This is under: 142 Chief Engineer - V Corps https://www.re-museum.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Library-War-Diaries-WW1.pdf
