R.P. March 1, 1917.
We are having another move. The day before yesterday I was working in the office doing Adjutant’s work from 9 a.m. to 3 a.m. the next morning without a break.
I see that there is an account of our raid in the “Times” of 28th February. It was quite a good raid, and I spent many hours working our part of the scheme out for the batteries.
We are now billeted in a huge empty house, but it is dry at any rate. I do not suppose we shall be long here.
