Vimy War Diaries of the CEF & BEF Attachments

[laughton]

Over here on the other side of the pond a group of us are collecting and posting the war diary entries for the CEF (and attached BEF) units that were in the ORBAT for April 9th to 14th, 1917 (or thereabouts). If others have additional information, we would be pleased to incorporate that data.

Here is the page - we hope you too find it of interest, as it appears to us that the best stories of the battle are in the unit war diaries that one might never otherwise read.

Fortunately some of the British War Diaries are in the Canadian Collections (Library and Archives Canada - War Dairies) but not all. Do you lads and lassies in the UK have a similar place to download war diaries?

Hello Richard

I have the Borden Battery war diaries transcribed and I think I have the 1CMMGB as well. Will forward to The Matrix for inclusion.
