    Hello all, I am still researching to try and find the grave of my great uncle Charles Frederick Burns of 77th field regiment, royal artillery, 1507658, killed in action 21 may 1940, Bergwijk, Belgium. Defending the river Sheldt near Kerkhove.

    I am casting my research a bit further and wondered if anyone had any of the following war diaries?
    I am particularly interested in the diary entries for 21-22nd May 1940, together with the roll calls.

    Diaries are with the references from national archives Kew-

    6 Black watch- Wo 167/712
    3 Grenadier Guards - Wo 167/702
    1/6 East Surrey regiment (couldnt find a reference no)
    2 Lancashire Fusiliers - WO 167/778
    1 South Lancashires - WO 167/784
    30 Field Regiment Royal Artillery Wo 167/480

    Thank you in advance,
    Adam
