Battle of Somme 3rd Battalion July 3-8 1916

Postby CNB » Sun Mar 09, 2008 1:28 pm

Stacke's description of this battalion and this period is not as clear as is usual for him.
He talks about 'two companies' and 'another company' and 'the remaining company' - I am confused!!

Does anyone know exactly how many companies were involved in the battle at that particular time?

With thanks

(in my paperback copy of Stacke it is page 168-169)

Coral,

I can probably help with this.

If you send me an Email address I'll forward you what I have, war diaries and some personal testmony if you think that would be helpful.

Do you mind if I ask why you want to know?

Lee
