D/DLI 7/463/2 41st Division Christmas card, 1917 |
20th Battalion Durham Light Infantry were part of the 41st Division. This Christmas card was sent by Lieutenant Charles Kent to Major Francis Maughan of 2nd Battalion DLI. Charles Kent was formerly with 2 DLI but was commissioned and by Christmas of 1917 was a lieutenant with 20 DLI.
20 DLI had moved to Italy in November 1917 and found themselves in the front lines near Nervesa and the Piave River at Christmas, but luckily for them it was a quiet day.
Merry Christmas to all our readers from the Durham at War Team.
