The Road to Chunuk Bair

A hot dusty day. Platoon and Company Drill in the morning, Battalion parade in the afternoon. On Battalion parade the dust defied description. The desert was dry and in the vicinity of the Camp was powdered to fine dust. It was impossible at times to see more than a few files just ahead. There is some foundation for the belief that we are soon to move. Most of us possess a tremendous amount of unnecessary kit and it is going to be a problem to satisfactorily dispose of it. Orders for tonight are for a Divisional training scheme day after tomorrow, and bound to require some solid marching.
