where next

Sunday, November 11, 1917 Weather: Showers

Were relieved this morning at 9 A.M. Was never so thankful for anything in my life. Was wet thru & coated with mud from head to foot. Returned to billets & turned in for a sleep. Stayed in bed all day. We fired 240 rounds during our twenty-four hours duty. This is my twenty-second birthday. Spent my last birthday in England and the one before that in Canada. Where shall I spend the next? I hope in Canada.

Entry in diary of Harry Mollins (my grandfather). This photo is Harry in 1915. More here @ DadzCorner.
