13 January 1945

A quiet night. Bad visibility sometimes as restricted as 1000 yards hindered observed shooting and the OPs.


In the morning the heavy guns attempted to range on 912152, which was a suspected admin area but

observation of shot was extremely difficult and they eventually gave up.


Medium guns during the day did a shoot onto the Regimental Rear Admin Area just South of STRAELEN.


Clouds of white smoke were seen coming from the area.


The Fd Arty engaged enemy movement 916187.


Some shelling at 8914 during the morning otherwise a quiet day.
