IMPORTANT NOTE
Reading edition
On the eve of publication, and too late for mention in the text, the officer commanding the 1st Bucks Battalion has received a letter from the War Office enclosing a translation of an Italian diploma and a facsimile in bronze of a gold medal presented to H.M. the King of Italy. Copies of the letter and diploma will be found printed in Appendix VII to this Record, and will be read with pride.
It will be seen that, out of all the Infantry Battalions engaged on the Italian Front, the 1st Bucks Battalion, the 1st Battalion Royal Welsh Fusiliers, and the H.A.C. are the three selected recipients of this high honour.
