Month and Year: October 1944 (Erase heading not required). Commanding Officer: Lt. Col. T. Hart Dyke
Place Date Hour Summary Reference
6   Patrolling was carried out from AERLE. These patrols concentrated on the woods about LAMENAKKER 1023. As the enemy appeared to be moving about this area, the picture produced by them was confused. From the information obtained from them it appeared that the enemy was probably holding a line running along the track passing North East and South West through 103240. One enemy fighting patrol penetrated our lines in this sector and threw grenades at the Carrier Pl post at 113233, killing one man and wounding another.
