Relieved


Wednesday 24th July 1918

The 4th Battalion, Bedfordshire Regiment was today relieved in support by 1st Battalion, Wiltshire Regiment. The battalion is north-west of Albert, where it has been since halting the enemy's advance in March. The adjutant mentioned that things seem to be "winding up" in the vicinity and hopes that an attempt to retake Albert is being planned.
