You cant say Durnford had the 2 co's of the 24th , as he didnt have them when he left the camp . He asked for them but didnt press the issue when they were declined to him by Melvill & Pulleine .

Guest Guest Subject: Re: Phew! Reinforcements arrive ... Fri Nov 30, 2012 5:02 am Hi all Fortunately Pulleine prevented Durnford to bring these poor companies ... They were crushed as the rocket launchers battery ... And the defense of the camp would have been even more difficult ... Cheers Pascal
