12   "Desperate" enemy attacks were to be considered a possibility and as the Corps would be thinly disposed on the ground, the utmost secrecy, including W/T silence, concerning the move, was to be observed. The 'Cold' Group would move to and take over an area at LE BUSQ and LE GRAND BONFAIT, now held by a Battalion of the KING'S SHROPSHIRE LIGHT INFANTRY and a Battalion of the ROYAL TANK REGIMENT.
