13 april 1945 WO 171/5084 - 13 Royal Horse
3 R Tks across and BC H Bty and his FOOs take over from BC I Bty and his FOOs. "Black Friday" - two tks (FOO and BC) KO - dvrs nastily injured and evac. Great bravery by Gnr Meylan - op in BCs tk - in removing and evac wounded dvr. Br-head all wood and bog. "Bazooka-Boys" in the wood: and two or three SPs or Tigers - two Tigers definitely identified. Many Boche killed though - FOO counted at least 300 yesterday. Day ended with one complete sqn bogging itself. All ARVs-incl our own - peeled for recovery. Our ARV was surplus to estab, but we have had it since last October, and it has been one of the hardest-worked vehs in the Regt. Its worth has been proved many times. There definitely should be one on the WE.
