    This is the best that I can do.

    When the National Archives re-open, get hold of Gary Tankard on this site and he will track down the War Diaries for you for Apr 45.

    My hunch is somewhere in the Po Valley firing shells at retreating Germans.

    Regards

    Sorry, cannot help for April 45, but on May 16 1945, 73 Med Regt RA were part of 2 AGRA (HQ Ferrara) and were based in a town called Cattolica. Hope this helps.
