Army Form C.2118
Unit: 7 FD Regt RA
Month and Year: September 1944 (Erase heading not required). Commanding Officer: Lt.Col. N.P.H. Tapp
Place Date Hour Summary Reference
17   Our journey today took us to a staging area East of MONS. The column passed the THIEPAUL memorial which for some brought back memories of the visit paid by the Regt in the winter 1939/40. The civilians in BELGIUM were in great form. The Lt QM, a married man, stated that he had never been kissed so much in his life. We settle for the night without cover in most unpleasant rain.
