WAR DIARY
or
INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY
Army Form C.2118
Unit: 2nd Bn The Royal Ulster Rifles
Month and Year: June 1944 (Erase heading not required). Commanding Officer: Lt. Col. I.C. Harris
Place Date Hour Summary Reference
9   Many of the wounded had been amazingly cheerful, joking in the face of the most frightful wounds. The Medical Officer, Captain C.R. Wright, RAMC, and his staff of Medical Orderlies and Stretcher Bearers had been a pillar of strength, dealing with the patients with the same calmness and a good deal more humour than was normally shown on the non operational sick parade.
