WAR DIARY or INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY |
Army Form C.2118 |
| Unit: 9 Brit Inf Bde | ||
| Month and Year: October 1944 | (Erase heading not required). | Commanding Officer: Brig. G.D. Browne |
| Place | Date | Hour | Summary | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 | 2100 | Some deductions can now be made as a result of the days patrolling. (i) The enemy firmly entrenched in wood 7329 7429 7529 7328 7428 7528 found their posn untenable after 2 Lincolns had driven a wedge into their main defs and consequently has made a large withdrawal South towards KLEINDORP and HEIDE 7624. (ii) our contact with the enemy West of the reservoir at 7628 seems to indicate that his withdrawal East has not been so definite and further indicates the enemy intention to def the line of MOLEN BEEK area 7628. |
