| Location | France, Front line LA VACQUERIE RIGHT |
| Entry | Frosty morning and a very fine day. Very little activity during daylight except with aircraft of both sides. The Divl Commander visited the line in the morning. At about 7.15 pm the enemy commenced an intensive bombardment with "MUSTARD GAS" over a large front - this continued unabated for about 3 ½ hours intermixed with HE. The Rations convoy reached the line in spite of the gas and got away again with comparatively slight casualties. The gas hung about in dangerous strength the whole night. |
