Official Sources

Unit war diaries

No war diaries exist for this unit. This could be because:

• units and formations were only required to keep official war diaries when operating in a theatre of war.
• war diaries were created but no longer survive.
• some unit pages on this site that represent groups of formation troops don't correspond to a unit or staff department that kept war diaries.
