War Diary

Regiment 1st Royal Berkshire
Location France, B3
Entry A German bombing party advanced towards J sap throwing bombs and shouting "Come on Tommy. Hoch Hoch!" Our bombers retaliated and drove them back. Work of wiring continued. Also made progress on the parados in NEW ROSE ST, as the trench was really only a breastwork it was necessary to construct the parados entirely of built up material. Enemy on the whole was very quiet.
