Hi all,

Looking for any information on this battalion, where it was and what action it was involved in on the 10th April 1918, any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks for that piece, I am the custodian of this gentlemans medals, he is a local man to me (Southend On Sea, Essex) and I am trying to finish my research on another local man.

He is buried in Premont Cemetery some 19.5 km south east of Cambrai
