WAR DIARY
or
INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY
Army Form C.2118
Unit: 3 MON
Month and Year: June 1944 (Erase heading not required). Commanding Officer: Lt.Col. H.G. Orr
Place Date Hour Summary Reference
17-18   All busy servicing eqpt and vehs and getting accustomed to these most trying French maps. There is occasional shelling by Jerry on an airstrip quite near us and the usual "hullaballu's" at night, but we are quite used to it now. The IO is the busiest man, he shoots off to the front line and brings back the latest news each day, and keeps us in the picture.
