through them and continue in the ad-
vance.
"rhe Thirtieth was already on the
START line, close behind the initial line
of the barragc. The Twenty seventh,
however, had not yet been able to take
the three strong points, The Knoll.
Guijlemont Farm and Quennemont
Farm, and was consequently about
1000 yards behind the barrage line,
which was east Of them. The question
O. changing the barraee lines for this
division was raised, but decided in the
negative, the brigade designated to
make the attack having reported at 6
p. m. on the 28th that it expected to
be within 400 yards or the barrage
lines or possibly even on the intended
starting line before the hour for at
tack.

follow across the tunnel, then deploy
facing south and cover the right of
the Australians after the relief. Ar
rangements were made 60 seize the
southern exit of the tunnel, which lay
in the division sector
"Thc German barrage was not
heavy, but nevertheless there were
many casualties, especially in the sup
port battalions. Smoke and fog rem
dered it difficult to keep direction and
contact. The One Hundred and Twen-
tieth infantry, on the right, crossed
the Hindenburg Line and occupied
Nauroy; the One Hundred and Seven
tcenth reached its proper position,
facing southeast and connecting the
One Hundred and Twentieth with the
Fortysixth British division. The One
Hundred and Nineteenth however on
the left, was enfiladed by machine
guns from it's own left, and had to
| form defensive flank in that direc-
rion, reaching back to the tunnel and
then connecting with the Twenty
seventh division. A battalion of the
One Hundred and Seventeenth and one
of the One Hundred and Eighteenth
were sent to support this flank. In
this position the Australians passed
through the lines and relieved the
Thirtieth division on the afternoon OF
September 20.
"In the Twenty seventh division the
Fifty fourth infantry brigade made
the attack under the same difficulties

outside it's sector to the left. Part of
the right regiment, the One Hundred
and Eighth, va dctour to the south,
avoided Qucnnemont Farm and
reached the Hindenburg Line south Of
Bony. Groups from all attacking
battalions succeeded in penetrating
between the strong points and reach
ing the Hindenburg Line, but by dusk
only the extreme right retained it's
footing in that line. Here the divi-
sion was relieved by the Australians
and remained in support; numerous
groups, however, aggregatirg over
900 men, remained with the Aus
tralians and assisted them in cleaning
up the Hindenburg Line on the right
taking it throughout the rest of the
sector, and occupying part of the vi
lagc of Bony.
