| Location | France, Robecq |
| Entry | Battalion detrained at BERGUETTE at 2am and marched to ST VENANT, where billets were found and breakfasts issued. At 8am orders were issued for Battalion to take up a defensive line in front of ROBECQ, and Battalion marched out at once, having to proceed across country owing to a blazing ammunition dump. Line was taken up and consolidated. Battalion HQ was established at P.23.c.8.3., but were shelled out and removed to P.17.c.0.5. At 5.40pm 5 EA flew low over our lines and one of our planes was crashed. The day was uneventful. At 7pm orders were issued for Battalion to change its disposition, but these were cancelled at a later hour. |
