Regiment 1/4th Royal Berkshire
Location France, Hebuterne
Entry The trenches were too wet for any work to be done on them. A and C Companies found fatigue parties for carrying and laying bricks in the Communication Trenches and the BRIQUETERIES the most of the day. Part of the parapet and barricade at JENA was blown in by shell fire in the afternoon, and all damage was repaired at night. Weather very wet and trenches still in a bad condition.
