PNP. IEEE R THIED AUSE, PIY. LNTEELICEYCE SMMMARY NO. 117 - 6-5-1878. Summary of Examination of prisoners of 237th R.I.R. 133th Dir. captured night 6tn16th May 1318. Turing our abtack. OTT HVOOR. From prisoners; statements it appears that the enemy was sur- prised by our attack and totally unprepared for 1t. During our ar- tillery bombardment, the men took cover in their trenches and our Infantry attack was too quick for them to prepare for defence. A few of the enemy were able to send up their S.O.S. signals, to which, however, their artillery did not reply. owing to our artillery. they were unable to man their light machine-guns and consequently were unable to put up much of a fight. They consider that their Reserve Battalion was too far behind to come up and reinforce them. Dispositions. The 237th R.L.R. had one battalion in the frent Line, one bat- talion in reserve and one battalion in rest, - and of their front line battalion, all four Companies were in the front line, out of which two groups per Company had been pushed forward as an outpost line, the main line of resistance being about 100 yards further past. Bach Company consisted of about 80-90 trench strength, including light machine-gun personnel with 4-5 light machine-guns. It is be- lieved that the Heavy Machine-gun Company was echeloned in depth be- hind the main line of resistance, but none of these prisoners had been captured. The average wiath of Company sectors appears to have been ahont 300 yards, thus the regimental sector was very thinly hold, this faot being commented upon by the N.C.0s. examined. Orders. The orders of the 3rd. pattalion before coming into the line were To hold the line. No intentions of any attack were known by They had been told that the British Divisions holding prisoners. the line in this sector were tired divisions and not likely to make any attack and therefore their stay in line would most likely be very quiet. Some of the prisoners state that they had been warned by the Battalion Commander that our patrolling had been active on several nights, but this does not seem to have been generally circu- lated amongst the men. Reliefs. Acbording to the statement of & reliable N.C.o. the 3rd. Battn. relieved the ist Battn. on the night 3rd (4th May, the lst Battn. having previously relieved the 246th R.I.R. of 54th Res.Div. about four days previously. This is confirmed by the statement of one other prisoner of the same regiment, though the remainder of the prisoners captured appear to have no knowledge of the troops pre- riously holding the sector before their regiment came in. 1643 AT Rest Billets. The 237th R.L.R. had been in barracks in rest for about thrse weeks in VILLERS-FAUCONS. They understood that they were to renain in rest for some considerable time and did not know that they were to come into line again until the day before they actually left their rest Billets. From VILLERS FAUCONS they marched viz BOUCHAVESNES, MAY REPAS, MARICOURT, along the road towards BRAY, around the out-, chirts of BRAY, thence along the main BRAY-CORBIE Road, branching off to the right across field paths into the first line. P. T. 0.
Losses and Drafts. During their period in rest, the 237th R.I.R. received three drafts from various sources. The largest of these was one which has in prisoners statements from previcusly been reported their Recruit Depot in WARSaw; Las ther draft came direct from Ger- many (strength about 100), and the third draft came from a Field Recruit Depot at BRUGGE, this draft consisting of about 200 men. According to prisoners’ statements, about 90f of the drafts from WARSAN and BRUGGE consisted of 1899 class, this being the first ap pearance of these 18-year old pen in the field. During their previous tour in the line in the neighbourhood of THENNES, prisoners agree that their losses were very heavy, nest of the Coys. when they came out to rest only being between 28 and 40 men strong. They also state that the losses amongst officers was excep tlonaily high. In connection with this, one N.C.O. states that on marching into line near THENNES their Coy. was attacked by our aaro- planes on the way, four bombs being dropped by us, all of which were directed on the Coy, - between 30 and 40 men being woundod and 20 men killed. As a result of this, what remained of the Coy. was ordered baok to billets from whence they had cone and were unable to proceed into the line. Even after having been reinforced by the troops mentioned above, the 199th Division was considered to by a worn-eut division and anfit for any offensive operations. Pther Regiments seen. Man of the 31st I.R. (18th Div. I were seen by prisoners in BRAY EAA about the 1st May, these men being ordered out of their billets to make room for the 237th R.I.R., part of which remained in BRAY for about two days. It is not definitely known whether the men of the 31st L.R. changed their billets in BRAY or left BRAY altogether. The former is censidered as the most likely. Men of the 84th and 65th Resiments (Active or Reserve unknown) were also seen about the 1st May in a village in the neighbourhood of BRAY, this village being possibly SULANNE. JCONLONO Prisoners affern that no attack is Lively to take place in the near future in this sector, but this view may be influenced by the fact that they were definitely told that they were not coming into and also to the poor opinion which the line in order to attack, - the N.C.0s. have at present of the quality of their divigion, which they state has been ruined by the number of young boys rebently re- ceived in drafts. In this connection, the N.C.0s. state that all preparations for attacks are kept very secret - more so than on previous occasions before the present offensive, - and say that they did not know of the commencement of the offensive before the 20th March. No other divisions have been heard of in reserve behind this gector which are likely to be available for an attack, though some of their statements agree that there is an unusually large quantity of ammunition stacked everywhere behind the lines. 1t is worthy of note that the men appear to have very 14ttle oppertunity of sesing or hearing of other troops than those in their own division while in rest or while marching up to the frent, as divisional sectors in the rear are rigidly ashered to and ne pan is allowed out of his own particular sector. one reliable N.C.c. states that further attacks are considered to be prebable, but the objective of these attacks and the sector in which they will take place is unknown.

ANNEXE TO THIRD AUST. DIV. INTELLIGENCE  SUMMARY NO. 117 -  6-5-1878.
Summary of Examination of prisoners of 237th R.I.R.
199th Div. captured night 5th/ 6th May 1918,
during our attack.
Our Attack.
From prisoners' statements it appears that the enemy was sur-

prised by our attack and totally unprepared for it. During our ar-

tillery bombardment, the men took cover in their trenches and our
Infantry attack was too quick for them to prepare for defence. A few
of the enemy were able to send up their S.O.S. signals, to which,
however, their artillery did not reply. Owing to our artillery,
they were unable to man their light machine-guns and consequently
were unable to put up much of a fight. They consider that their
Reserve Battalion was too far behind to come up and reinforce them.
Dispositions.
The 237th R.I.R. had one battalion in the front Line, one bat-

talion in reserve and one battalion in rest, - and of their front
line battalion, all four Companies were in the front line, out of
which two groups per Company had been pushed forward as an outpost
line, the main line of resistance being about 100 yards further East.
Each Company consisted of about 80-90 trench strength, including
light machine-gun personnel with 4-5 light machine-guns. It is be-

lieved that the Heavy Machine-gun Company was echeloned in depth be-

hind the main line of resistance, but none of these prisoners had
been captured.
The average width of Company sectors appears to have been about
300 yards, thus the regimental sector was very thinly held, this fact
being commented upon by the N.C.0s. examined.
Orders.
The orders of the 3rd. Battalion before coming into the line
were "To hold the line". No intentions of any attack were known by
prisoners. They had been told that the British Divisions holding
the line in this sector were tired divisions and not likely to make
any attack and therefore their stay in line would most likely be
very quiet. Some of the prisoners state that they had been warned
by the Battalion Commander that our patrolling had been active on
several nights, but this does not seem to have been generally circu-

lated amongst the men.
Reliefs.
According to the statement of a reliable N.C.O. the 3rd. Battn.
relieved the 1st Battn. on the night 3rd/4th May, the 1st Battn.
having previously relieved the 246th R.I.R. of 54th Res. Div. about
four days previously. This is confirmed by the statement of one
other prisoner of the same regiment, though the remainder of the
prisoners captured appear to have no knowledge of the troops pre- 

viously holding the sector before their regiment came in.
Rest Billets.
The 237th R.L.R. had been in barracks in rest for about three
weeks in VILLERS-FAUCONS. They understood that they were to remain
in rest for some considerable time and did not know that they were
to come into line again until the day before they actually left their
rest billets. From VILLERS FAUCONS they marched via BOUCHAVESNES,
MAU REPAS, MARICOURT, along the road towards BRAY, around the out-

skirts of BRAY, thence along the main BRAY-CORBIE Road, branching
off to the right across field paths into the first line.
P. T. 0. 

 

Losses and Drafts.
During their period in rest, the 237th R.I.R. received three
drafts from various sources. The largest of these was one which has
previously been reported in prisoners statement from
their Recruit Depot in WARSAW; another draft came direct from Ger-

many (strength about 100), and the third draft came from a Field
Recruit Depot at BRUGGE, this draft consisting of about 200 men.
According to prisoners’ statements, about 90% of the drafts from
WARSAW and BRUGGE consisted of 1899 class, this being the first ap-

pearance of these 19-year old men in the field.
During their previous tour in the line in the neighbourhood of
THENNES, prisoners agree that their losses were very heavy, most of
the Coys. when they came out to rest only being between 28 and 40 men
strong. They also state that the losses amongst officers was excep-

tionally high. In connection with this, one N.C.O. states that on
marching into line near THENNES their Coy. was attacked by our aero-

planes on the way, four bombs being dropped by us, all of which were
directed on the Coy, - between 30 and 40 men being wounded and 20 men
killed. As a result of this, what remained of the Coy. was ordered
back to billets from whence they had cone and were unable to proceed
into the line.
Even after having been reinforced by the troops mentioned above,
the 199th Division was considered to be a "worn-out" division and
unfit for any offensive operations.
Other Regiments seen.
Men of the 31st I.R. (18th Div. )  were seen by prisoners in BRAY
about the 1st May, these men being ordered out of their billets to
make room for the 237th R.I.R., part of which remained in BRAY for
about two days. It is not definitely known whether the men of the
31st L.R. changed their billets in BRAY or left BRAY altogether. The
former is considered as the most likely.
Men of the 84th and 65th Regiments (Active or Reserve unknown)
were also seen about the 1st May in a village in the neighbourhood
of BRAY, this village being possibly SUZANNE.
Intentions
Prisoners affirm that no attack is likely to take place in the
near future in this sector, but this view may be influenced by the
fact that they were definitely told that they were not coming into
the line in order to attack, - and also to the poor opinion which
the N.C.0s. have at present of the quality of their division, which
they state has been ruined by the number of young boys recently re-

ceived in drafts.
In this connection, the N.C.0s. state that all preparations for
attacks are kept very secret - more so than on previous occasions
before the present offensive, - and say that they did not know of
the commencement of the offensive before the 20th March.
No other divisions have been heard of in reserve behind this
sector which are likely to be available for an attack, though some
of their statements agree that there is an unusually large quantity
of ammunition stacked everywhere behind the lines.
It is worthy of note that the men appear to have very 1ittle
opportunity of seeing or hearing of other troops than those in
their own division while in rest or while marching up to the front,
as divisional sectors in the rear are rigidly adhered to and no man
is allowed out of his own particular sector.
One reliable N.C.O. states that further attacks are considered
to be probable, but the objective of these attacks and the sector in
which they will take place is unknown.
