Lonsdale Battalion events that took place on 30 June.
For events that took place elsewhere, see 30 June on The Great War wiki.
1916
- Newspaper article: Had Severe Blows - Lonsdales Resting.[1]
- Newspaper article: Two in Hospital and One of Them a Lost Brother.[2]
- Battalion situated at Crucifix Corner. No fresh written Battalion Orders are issued. Sometime during the day notes and instructions[3] are issued verbally by Lt-Col. Machell. Each man is thoroughly acquainted with the task that lay before him.[4]
- The Lonsdales move up at 10pm from dug-outs at Crucifix Corner to specifically dug assembly trenches in the thickest (and least damaged) area of Authuille Wood in preparation for Zero Hour on 1 July.[5] A transverse trench used for communication purposes leads the men through the wood. They are hardly shelled at all during the night, with zero casualties.[4]
1917
- Battalion patrol examines wire in M.22.b.1.6. Day is exceptionally quiet.[6]
