went to inspect the batteries. They fired two rounds for our benefit. Fired at German plane while there. German plane droped bomb on a regiment of soldiers in the road about 15 minutes before we passed and killed eighty of them. Got home about 3 P.M. Had lots of trouble with the motor.

P.S. The evening of our first night in camp we were initiated to our first shell fire. Ernie Deshane & I went on the hill to see the firing. Just about to leave for camp when search lights (16 of them) started to play in the sky and looked very much like the search lights at the P.P.I.E. Soon star bombs were sent up and anti air guns
