shaymen Posted 6 February , 2008 Author Share Posted 6 February , 2008 Hi Shaymen Do you happen to have the war diary for the 7th Battalion East Surreys for May to December 1917? They were at the battle of Cambrai - my grandfather joined the Bn in June 1917 and was captured in Nov/Dec. Many thanks Phil Sorry Phil Don't have the 7th East Surreys. Again it might be worth starting a thread in Unit/Formations and asking there. Glyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_Hartley Posted 6 February , 2008 Share Posted 6 February , 2008 May I remind Pals looking for diary downloads that Glyn and others have posted here what we have. If we havnt listed it, we havnt got it. There may be other threads in the Repository section where others have posted what they have. The "search" facility will find them if they exist. Other than that, Glyn's advice in the previous post is the one to follow. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
