| VAARSEL | 21 | 1300 | We reached the village of VAARSEL about 1300 hrs, and dug in along the road. The plan is for the Herefords to force a crossing of the WILLEMS CANAL, and allow a bridge to be built, tonight. At first light 4 KSLI & Fife & Forfar cross the canal and capture ASTEN. The plan was most carefully laid on and we are all very confident. |
