| War Diaries & Comments The War diaries of Harry's Battalion are well worth investigation. They are written at the time by the Battalion Adjutant and give the "official" account of the progress of around 1,000 men as they go through the war. They are brief, around a couple of sentences most days.
I have transcribed them from August onwards and will continue as long as the "Blog" keeps going.
The comments that readers [..] |

| Comments. Fresh Approach. The wonderful comments received by readers have required a complete re-organisation. The original system was fine for the few comments that were being received but was not structured enough to cope with the volume that is now being sent. For the moment, there are two "Comments" blogs available. If you really don't like the "new" one, please let me know.Please address specific comments to the post concerned. However, if the comments are generally about the whole project, it makes it much easier for me to deal with them if you add them to the latest post.All the answers t [..] |

| Comments!! There has been a rash of comments that were simply used to put an advertising URL on the blog.
I've, sadly, resorted to moderating comments. Genuine readers kindly boycott sites containing "medonlineshops" or "titanichosts" in the URL. [..] |

| More on the War Diaries I have decide that, in parallel with the blog, I'll keep the War Diaries of the 9th Battalion York & Lancaster Regiment up to date.
There is, virtually, an entry every day so that the reader can gret an overview of what was happening to the whole Battalion. This should complement Harry's letters extremely well. (They are going to restart very shortly).
Today, I have put on the entry for 27th [..] |

| War Diaries of Harry's Battalion August 6th I've just discovered and downloaded the "War Diaries" of the 9th Battalion York & Lancaster Regiment, Harry's Unit. These astonishing documents are available online from the Public Records Office, Kew website.
They give a day-by-day account of the activities of the battalion. I now have to decide how to deal with the information. It is fascinating to put the "official" account against Harry's [..] |

| The Train Journey I have at last received the copies of the Battalion's War diaries for November. We can see what Harry and his comrades were up to while we wait for his next letter.
They would certainly have seen some interesting parts of France. The Rhone Valley, Marseille, Cannes and Nice would have been a little better in peacetime!
Follow the link to the Battalion's War diary to read the detail. BL [..] |

Navigating the Etiquette of Social Media 
Blogging, social networking and a veritable host of methods of stay in contact with people are all very new. There is no real handbook of online etiquette that we can turn to with questions of how many comments are too many or whether we really have an obligation to [..] |

| 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 ( [..] |

| Maps of the Italian Front A retired Officer from the Duke of Wellington's Regiment (West Riding), Jono Wood, has worked with The War Diaries and prepared some wonderful slides that give a picture of the topography of the Italian Front. Until this was produced I was working with a list of largely meaningless Italian place names.Thanks to Jono we can get a much clearer image of what Harry was encountering. The pl [..] |

| Connie More information has been found on little Connie, Kate's daughter.
Connie was afflicted with "Spastic Diplegia". I understand that this is now known as cerebral palsy affecting limbs on both sides. This explains the comments about Connie walking and her starting school being noteworthy.
Two years before the Harry went away to war, they lost their first child, Arthur in infancy. A year after [..] |

| Back in the front Line I have today received the latest posting of the Battalion's War Diary. As could probably be predicted from the recent patrols, Harry is now back in the front line.
This section of the War Dairy is extremely difficult to decipher, but I will do my best to update the blog of the War Diaries as the entries occur.
For those that haven't followed the War Diary, Harry's Battalion made it to the [..] |
