Hi I'm not getting clear answers from a Google search as to whether 239/11th RHA were at Outpost Snipe with the Rifle Brigade on 27th October 1942 or in a supporting role. Can anyone clarify? Thanks Steve
Do you mean Outpost Snipe ? A fair bit of info here. Outpost Snipe See the images from BFBSM "Images from The Rifle Brigade 1939-1945 by Major RHWS Hastings (Gale & Polden, 1950)."
Thanks Owen, I did indeed . Thanks for the link, the scans of the Rifle Brigade history confirm 239 battery were there. So I'm happy, thanks for your help Steve
Yes, it gets mentioned in Harry Potter and the Desert Wind, the little known volume covering Harry’s honeymoon with Ginny.
Can't be Snape, my old Dad and his Liverpool Scottish mates spent many a night on guard on the Bridge over the river Alde, 1940.

Sorry for the typo in the subject header. Can't work out how to amend it. It's definitely Snipe I was asking about
