Camp near Warrenton Junction.
In the morning we are talked into removing our bivouac back several hundred paces. Bahson brings a plucked chicken, Keller brings four to five chickens, flour, eggs, etc. The chicken from Bahson is stolen right from under our eyes.
Changing the position of our camp two to three times.
The Second Brigade is supposed to have the front. Our Regiment took the hill.
Evening: We sleep in trenches filled with leaves.
Gronen returns from his leave and catches up with us.
In the evening our Chief voices the suspicion that we may be alarmed during the night and may have to advance. There is even a possibility we may be attacked.
Chief Dirkel is supposed to be Prisoner of War.
The wagons have orders to retreat.
All are packing.
Finally the Brigade is demanding Engineers, six men from every regiment. Since tools are lacking in the Regiment, this too has to be given up.
CHICKEN BOUILLON.-
No trouble during the night.
