After time spent at Cambrai we travelled back to Domart, a village mid-way between Amiens and Abbeville. In duration the journey surpassed all records. Three days we spent impatiently waiting for a train, and two more patiently waiting in the train itself; and we arrived at the destination faced with a ten-mile march in rain and pitch darkness.
Estaires destroyed. Laventie revisited. The attack on Junction Post. Lance-Corporal Wilcox, V.C. Scavenging at the XI Corps school. On the Aubers ridge. The end in sight. Move to Cambrai. In action near Bermerain and Maresches. A fine success. Domart and Demobilisation. Work at Etaples. Off to Egypt.
Happily the war was still sufficiently recent for such delay to pass as comedy. At Domart the one real topic was Demobilisation. I could set myself no harder task than a description of the workings of this engine. Few people understood how they were themselves demobilised, and fewer cared how others were.
