| 6 Reasons Why it Makes Sense to Arrive Early
Why bother showing up early when you can blame any number of things for ?making? you late? There?s traffic, a convenient ally when you need her. A distant cousin to traffic would be a freeway accident, which of course creates traffic. Then there?s the blatantly obvious excuse of [..] |

| Please be patient There is a gap in the letters at the moment which I can't explain. Maybe there was a small bundle that was lost. I just don't know. Maybe Harry had a leave during this time and so didn't write letters. All I can do in this gap is to keep you up to date with his Unit's War Diary. We can see from that that Harry is not seeing too much action. I can reassure you that he is O.K. and will continue [..] |

Harry Goes on Leave, September 1918 & Postage Stamps!  There is a gap in the letters. This is certainly due to Harry being granted leave back to England.In general, ordinary soldiers could expect to get around two weeks home leave each year. Harry has definately not had leave since he arrived in Italy in late 1917. I suspect, but have no firm evidence that he had leave in August 1917 from Flanders. There was a gap in his letters for that month. I think that he would have made some sort of comment in his letters if he hadn't had leave for around 20 months!I do have evidence of this summer's leave and will be pub [..] |

| 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. I know that this is slightly against the spirit of the blog, but the family at home would probably have had the comfort of letters.
I have, thanks to a helpful reader, found the location of Harry's Unit for this battle. It would appear [..] |

| 9th August 1917, Card to Connie This flash of colour was tucked in the grey, drab bundle of letters. It's difficult to tell when it was sent as there's no date or postmark. It must have been included with one of the letters and the content suggests that it must have been sent about this time. I admit to taking a liberty by implying the precise date.The little card was inserted in behind the flap in the muslin front. [..] |

| War Diaries August 1917 I am almost apologising for not having letters to post. (Almost but not quite!)
The reality is, of course, that I can't publish letters that I don't possess or don't exist.
I have transcribed the War Diary of Harry's Battalion. It can be seen that, for the month of August 1917, the 9th Battalion York & Lancaster Regiment saw little action. They spent their time in various camps in the Ypres ( [..] |
