Lieutenant L A L Fink [X550/1/81]
Wednesday 7th
February 1917 from our correspondent in
the field
As small
attacks begin again on the Somme the rest of the army is still training ready
for any big push to take place in the next month of two. 2nd Battalion,
Bedfordshire Regiment, is at Monchiet, south-west of Arras. Today Captain R E
Oakley proceeded to the Third Army School, to which most of the senior officers
of the Battalion have now been. In his absence Lieutenant L L Fink has taken
over command of C Company(1).
(Lawrence Fink MC would die on 4th October 1917 - he is buried at Kemmel Chateau Military Cemetery)
