The following additional documents will add colour to the brief entries, written by my Father, into his diary, shown below: AUG. 7th Early in morning we are in a "priest" right along with the infantry in the attack on Rocquancourt. Very exciting adventure. We even forgot about the rum Mr. Cooper managed to get. Luckily we were in slit trenches when Jerry tanks began firing on our tanks close to our R.A.P. They were soon knocked out. AUG. 8th Cpl. Phillips killed and little Macdonald wounded. AUG. 9th C.C.P. beyond Ifs. A.D.S. in hospital at Faubourg. AUG. 10th Our section returns to H.Q. Little Macdonald reported having died.
