WAR DIARY or INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY |
Army Form C.2118 |
| Unit: 110 Provost CMP | ||
| Month and Year: April 1945 | (Erase heading not required). | Commanding Officer: Capt. J.D. Brown |
| Place | Date | Hour | Summary | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | No change in disposition of the company. Heavy traffic continues up “Square Route” with the road collapsing in places and needing repair, and vehicles getting ditched. These matters were speedily altered by RE’s and Recovery, and the flow of traffic only slightly impeded. A constant stream of displaced persons arrived in LAER and every effort was made to get them on vehicles back to a collecting centre at WESEL. German soldiers also came in in steady numbers as POWs or to surrender and were put on vehicles to the P.O.W. cage at VELEN. |
