18   We moved again once more! We were supposed to move off at 0700 hrs but did not move off until 1300 hrs. The Bde’s task was left flank protection to 53 Div who were to push on over the ALBERT CANAL. We arrived at 1600 hrs at 032834, where we remained for the night. It was originally meant that we should be the other side of the canal but owing to the number of troops already on the ground, we stayed this side.
