| Entry | The battalion in billets at LES BREBIS. It was found that the French had left their billets in a most insanitary condition. A very great deal of work had, therefore, to be done, but owing to the efforts of our Medical Officer, Captain S D LARGE RAMC, the difficulties were soon overcome. The Commanding officer, Major C G HILL DSO inspected the last reinforcement, which was composed of old hands of an excellent stamp for the most part. Companies held inspections of kit, boots, feet, etc. Lovely weather, sunny and bright. Nothing of interest to report. Brigadier General A.C.DALY assumed command of the 6th Infantry Brigade, vice Brigadier General R Fanshawe promoted. The undermentioned 2/Lieuts from 3rd Btn DORSET REGT joined. 2/Lt S.A. GOMEZ, 2/Lt V.G.STOKES, 2/Lt R.TYSON Lieut G.L.CARR invalided to ENGLAND. |
