15 August 1916 Tuesday

French attack on La TORTUE last night believed successful. Attack on Doiran in progress while I write. The 65 Bde out of it for a few days.
Thompson back from hospital. CSM Collins gone to hospital probably for good.
Quiet day. No men to look after as 85 of the Coy went yesterday to 10 Ammunition Column. My present strength on L’OUBLI is two officers, 4 sergeants three LCpls and 4 men!
