17 May 1915:
Following the attack on 16 May the Scots Guards consolidated their position in the German trenches.
Louis was fortunate not to be in one of those Companies hardest hit- or he was one of the lucky ones if he was.
At this stage the fate of F Company was still not known.
In future days we will see newspaper reports of the deeds of the Scots Guards and F Company in particular. They came to be known as 'The Immortals".
Back in the UK , Walter the second of the four brothers had arrived from Ceylon, on 15 May. There, he had joined The Ceylon Planters Rifles. In the UK he was about to join up with the HAC.
