| 31 | The Bn has finally settled down in England but has not found it easy doing so. The chief difficulty was the lack of transport at the beginning, particularly for the Advance party. The Bde was expected to prepare four camps, scattered over an area 15 miles by 8 miles, with one three tonner. After a continued fight to get transport, the camp was partially ready to meet the Bn when it arrived. |
