October 23

The Langemarke Area
The 26th Brigade RFA remains in position near Inn. At 6.15 am, one gun of 118 is pushed forward from road junction south-east of Inn to try and fire directly on Inn which is held by the Germans. This proves impossible but a mill just east if Inn is destroyed.

At 12.45, guns of 117 are turned onto trench reported by infantry just north of the road junction west of Langemarke.

At 1pm, 118 and 57th howitzer battery shoot at the road junction north-west of Inn with aeroplane reconnaissance reporting as effective.

At 1.15pm, 116 shoots at Verbrandennis with aeroplane reconnaissance.

At 5pm the enemy is attacked by batteries firing to the north of Inn.
