There were also several "old hands" who returned to us, amongst them, Privates Garfield and Law of "D" Company, both original members of the 1914 Battalion. These reinforcements enabled us to form again four platoons per Company, and we became once more a full Battalion. Another batch of reinforcements, which arrived at Busnettes, contained several drummers of the 1st and 3rd Battalions.
