We had to get some more boats today. The attack starts at 9 tonight. The artillery starts at 8:30 pm. We had to go after another load of boats and take them up to the canal. God the artillery is sure letting everything fly. Haven’t heard anything like it for some time. The roads were all jammed with traffic, and as usual the French had everything jammed up. We saw a lot of prisoners coming in. Got in about 12 o’clock.
