Hi Frank

Thanks for your response. My Grandfather was, according to the Regiment’s war diaries, in and around Coriano at that time as well.

Might I ask you a question? My Grandfather was BSM for B Battery of the 11th (HAC) RHA. I have struggled to get a real sense of the role the BSM fulfilled within a Battery – would you know of any resources that might give an outline of BSM’s job?

Many thanks

Chris
