Month and Year: September 1944 | (Erase heading not required). | Commanding Officer: Brig. G.D. Browne |
Place | Date | Hour | Summary | Reference |
---|---|---|---|---|
20 | 1450 | By early forenoon 1 KOSB were fully in possession of ACHEL and had moved their HQ into the village. The enemy seem to have made a gen withdrawal in the area, unexpected considering their vigorous defence of the previous day, yet not wholly surprising in view of the dogged perseverance and courage shown by our tps when in contact with the Boche. |
