Saturday August 25 '17

Herb & I went on six o'clock convoi with Section "550." Halled "75's" (specials gas) shells from Villers Sevoy to "C3." Shells were falling thick all around us. We were in sight of five sausoges and the Cheman des Dames. Only one car at a time was allowed in the park & we had to have our gas masks slung over our sholders in rediness for a gas attack. Herb & I went 2 kms. farther up the road after permisshoners but they had already gone. Saw some 280 guns under their screen covers. We came home alone. After dinner went down to the hosbital with mail for Ben.
