| 11 | 'C' Sqn relieved 'B' Sqn at mid-day. Shortly after first light 'B' Sqn reported noises which sounded like tracked vehicles moving on the opposite side of the river. Similar noises had been heard during the night. As, however, no movement was observed while the noises, nevertheless, continued, it was suggested that the noises might have come from concrete mixers. A quiet day on all fronts. Some small fires (which gave the appearance of "brew-up" fires and appeared at about 1700 hrs) were engaged by the arty. Dull and rainy. |
