An unusual puzzling feeling twigged my interest on the 16th Battalion and 3rd Brigade at Kitchener's Wood to just up to St Julien. So - prowling through the online wardiaries I clipped some quick background for you.
The ammo expenditure for 1st div was amazing. Mind you I have heard they were facing the front end of 73,000 Germans.
