One reads the cold, unadorned entry in the Brigade Diary with gratification : As it was not yet Zero time they charged, and the enemy retired. The soldierly spirit and bearing of the 1st Battalion were remarkable.’ (Regimental Records of the Royal Welch Fusiliers, by Major C. H. Dudley Ward, D.S.O., M.C. Vol. IV, 1915 - 1918 refers).
