Thursday 26th
August: A and D Companies of the 7th Battalion have been in the trenches at
Bécordel and are being relieved today by B and C Companies so that all the
battalion will have had a gradual introduction to this gruelling and deadly
environment. It is an irony that they have been introduced to the front line by
the kilted favourites of the County Town, the 51st (Highland) Division who
were, until earlier this year, stationed in Bedford. No doubt many
reminiscences were exchanged in the process.
