37th Battalion AIF
« on: Thursday 14 July 16 10:28 BST (UK) »
I'm not sure whether to post here on in the World war 1 section, but I've been trying to find if the actual war diary of the 37th is online anywhere. I've found a digital copy of the battalion written by N.G. McNichol which is wonderful, but it would be interesting to see the actual day to day diary.

Thanks.

Hi Carole,

The Australian War Memorial site has the Official Commanding Officer's Diaries for the 37th Battalion from June 1916 to October 1918.

https://www.awm.gov.au/collection/war-diaries/

Goto First World War then find the section marked Infantry then head to the 37th.
