War Diary

1915-01-30
Regiment 1st Royal Berkshire
Location France, RUE DE L'EPINETTE
Entry A quiet day. One breastwork slightly shelled, no damage. RE marked out four roads for reinforcement to get up forward, dykes bridged where necessary. We attempted to reclaim part of old trench, but it proved impossible owing to depth of water and mud. Two more explosions heard in same place as last night. Germans busy during night repairing their wire entanglements. Two extra machine guns arrived.
