Thursday 7th December 1916: From our Correspondent in the Field
The East
Anglian Field Company, Royal Engineers are busy on the old Somme battlefield.
Indeed the engineers always seem to be busy because there is always some task
needing doing somewhere. At present the engineers are not far from Aveluy which
adjoins the River Ancre. They have been building machine-gun emplacements. They
have also been repairing tramways and building dug-outs in the same area, ready
for any German counter-offensive in the new year.
