Sunday 26th August 1917

‘New Dickebusch Camp’, just south-west of the village of Dickebusch.

Officers and men were to be prepared for their part in forthcoming operations in the vicinity of Inverness Copse, with officers visiting the front line, despite heavy German shelling. The afternoon and evening became very wet.
L.Cpl. Louis Feather (see 10th August) began to be paid according to his rank, having previously held the post unpaid.
Pte. John William Baird (see 5th July) was promoted Lance Corporal.
Pte. Thomas Henry Wood (see 23rd August) returned to duty from 70th Field Ambulance, where he had spent three days being treated for influenza.

Pte. Arthur Cerenza King (see 5th August), who had been wounded on 14th July, was transferred from 5th Convalescent Depot at Wimereux to 34th Infantry Base Depot at Etaples.
