War Diary

Regiment	8th Royal Berkshire
Location	England, WARMINSTER
Entry	10AM. Entrained. 12 Noon. Detrained. SOUTHAMPTON DOCK. 6pm. Embarked on R.M.S. Viper. Gave orders for issue of life belts in case of need. I am now of opinion that there should be an Army Order that a lifebelt should be issued to every man as he embarks, as the difficulty of issue would be enormous in such a crowded ship and the issue could not be completed in much more than the 10 minutes required to sink a ship by torpedo.
