Administrative Correction:
Page Numbering ("229 A"):
The handwritten page number "229 A" indicates that this document was inserted into the War Diary volume after the initial compilation. Such inserts were common when reports were delayed or found later and needed to be archived in their correct chronological place without re-numbering the entire volume.
