Our great days were:--

Stopping the Germans East of BUCQUOY--
March 23rd to 29th, 1918.

The advance West of MIRAUMONT--
21st August, 1918.

The Capture of MIRAUMONT and PYS--
24th August, 1918.

The Capture of VILLERS AU FLOS--
2nd September, 1918.

The Battle of the HINDENBURG LINE--
27th September, 1918.

The Battle of the SELLE RIVER--
20th October, 1918.

In every one of these the 7th Manchesters were called upon to play a
part. Whether their original role in the plan of battle had been to lead
the attack or to act in support they were always in the picture before
the end of the fight. I am not going to pick out this or that as their
finest performances. The reader can choose for himself when he has
finished the book. It is enough for me to say that, whatever task was
given them, they took on cheerfully and carried through magnificently.
Not only that, but they were anxious to go beyond what was demanded of
them, as is well shown by the fighting at La Signy Farm which they
attacked and captured on their own initiative.
