Unit war diaries
Official war diaries for this unit have not yet been located. If you know where they are, please use the appropriate template to add links and archival references:
- {{War diary TNA}} for the UK National Archives
- {{War diary AWM}} for the Australian War Memorial
We don't yet have templates for diaries held at other archives but you can manually create links to them and add the page to Category:Units with official war diaries.
If you know that no diaries exist, please add:
- {{War diary none admin}} for administrative organisations with no operational role
- {{War diary none continental}} for infantry battalions in the continental system where diaries were only kept at regiment level and above
- {{War diary none}} for all other units or formations
