Entry | In the morning the enemy after a heavy bombardment for about 3 hours twice attacked the Battn front but was completely repulsed sustaining very heavy casualties. In the afternoon the Battn Lewis Gunners did great execution amongst many parties of the enemy. The Battn suffered considerable casualties from shellfire including Capt Hughes DSO RAMC, Capt Hayward MC and Lieut Burry. The night of the 23rd/24th was somewhat lively owing to the enemy continuously trying to creep up and cut the wire. |
