    Hello all,
    Does anyone per chance have a copy or a link of the May 1940 War Diary for the 2 Lancashire Fusiliers?

    I went to the National Archives in Kew and pre-ordered the document, only to be told when I got there that it was currently out with a government dept and they didnt know when it would be returned!

    Their reference is WO/167/778.

    I am only really interested in the entries of 19th-22nd May 1940 and a roll call if there is one.

    Alternatively does anybody know of their positions on these dates?

    Thank you in advance to anybody who can help me!

    Adam

    I believe that Drew has that one, so it's worth asking him. If you're going back to Kew then the diary of 11th Infantry Brigade might shed some light too.

    Thanks Rich, I will drop him a line.
    Yes I got a copy if the 11th infantry brigade thanks but I was hoping to read the regiments diary too for some extra detail.
