Love And the Loveless (2014)
“Nolan put on the cross of ration box wood he made, in indelible pencil, Sleep on, dear Brother, take thy Gentle Rest. One can never tell a man’s soul by his outward appearance. Company relieved at night. Took 9 hours. Guns brought back for armourers.
11 Sat Half quarter day. £10 from M.F.O. making my balance at Cox’s £127–5–4. Attack on Gheluvelt plateau failed. Saw remnants of 7th Gaultshires coming back, had been in line a week already and were done up. Other battalions had been in f...or ten days, hanging on by eyebrows in watery shell-holes. Westhoek taken by R. Irish Rifles. Got tight.
12 Sun Refitting. Collected four newdonks. Three drivers arrived, but we are still six short.
13 Mon We are to go in again tonight. Have told Nolan to see that Cutts stays back, on picket, and to help stitcher and cold shoer, etc.
During the four days out of the line the company, one of nearly fifty which had been in the battle so far, together with one hundred and ninety-two infantry battalions, had no rest.MoreLess
