| Month and Year: October 1944 | (Erase heading not required). | Commanding Officer: Lt.Col. N.P.H. Tapp |

| 30 | Today we harass the Boche with an independent Tp with the object of creating a "fog of war" followed by the covering of enemy territory with airburst. This successful operation was carried out by "B" Tp of 9 Bty. This operation was enjoyed by the gunners and although results cannot be accurately assessed it must have had the desired effect on the German. Major Dunn returned to the Regt completely recovered from his wounds received at LEBISEY. He took over command of 16 Bty and Major Sulivan was posted from the Regt. |
