| 3 | The Bn leagured the night at the village of VELTHEM J 8161 only a short distance from LOUVAIN. Everyone had fairly comfortable quarters, and the drivers particularly were glad to get to sleep, after a very tiring night drive. The persistance of rain making the roads greasy, in conjunction with the glaring headlights of oncoming traffIc also made it rather dangerous, but fortunately there were no accidents. |
