At zero +1 (minute) the first wave consisting of B Coy on the left & A Coy on the right went over, and were followed by D Coy (moppers up) & C Coy (Harry's Company) in support at short intervals.

| 22nd July; More on Messines Ridge | | I need to let the reader know that we have a gap in the letters. I don't think that Harry didn't write any, I suspect that a small bundle was lost or removed.

(To make things even more complicated, each archive is also in reverse order - [..] Leer nota completa |  | Publicado 05-Aug-2007 por Pte Harry Lamin en artistas Leído 80 veces. Más resultados en  |

He's incredibly stubborn and so is determined to come downstairs every day to the living room, but the toilet is upstairs so it means a rather scary ascent o [..] Leer nota completa |  | Publicado 31-Dec-1969 por Pte Harry Lamin en General Leído 2 veces.
