Sunday, 21 January 1917

Fine & cold. Our section was on duty & we took ammunition up to the gun pits in the evening. They have great positions for the guns. Ours is under a house in one of the streets of Armentières.   The whole place up there is knocked about a lot & nearly all the civilians have left it. Our fellows roam round the houses & get anything they want to make themselves comfortable.   We had our first casualty today -  Bob Fowler got one in the knee. Got a big mail in the evening.
