17 March 1945

At 0740 hrs ME 109 flew up the River at tree top height.


The enemy seemed anxious to know what was going on on the left bank of the river.


During the night the Pl at 075514 saw a small boat in the river at 075516 going down-stream, and about an hour afterwards two figures were challenged approaching along the bank from the WEST, who made off again without a word.


Otherwise a quiet night.
