| 2 | 2200 | A number of German sympathisers were rounded up by local patriots and sent back for investigations by civil authorities. The battalion was now within 6 miles of the German frontier and every precaution had to be taken to prevent civilians obtaining information of value to the enemy. Altough the local inhabitants appeared to be friendly disposed towards the Allies, it was very probably that many of them were pro Germans. |
