Army Form C.2118 |
| Unit: 11 Armd Div Signals | ||
| Month and Year: September 1944 | (Erase heading not required). | Commanding Officer: Lt. Col. J.L. Harrison |
| Place | Date | Hour | Summary | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 13 | New freq allotment issued in an endeavour to give improved freqs to the Armd and Inf Bdes. Line lay-out improved. It is found that, owing to the sandy nature of the soil in this area, earth return lines were not satisfactory unless carefully cited, in some cases earth pins being planted as much as 300 yds from the Sig Office in an endeavour to find suitable soil. Bdes advised to pour water regularly on earth pins. Where possible metallic returns were provided. Corps and Rear Div moved nearer thus improving line situation. | Appx 'A' |
