Pte Ralph Goode (Lilydale), 2^nd Field Ambulance: On Lemnos Island. In his diary –‘Something big on, if we only knew what it is. 5^th and 6^th Battalion, 4^th Light Horse, 7^th Brigade all arrived here today, everyone with the same idea that we are going to give up Anzac. Just fancy it, will break our hearts after all we’re done there, to give it back before we’ve finished. But we bow our heads to our Generals, they know best’.

Trp Leslie Coppin (Kilsyth), 13^th Light Horse Regiment: Is admitted to hospital in Egypt suffering from cardiac arrhythmic debility. While here he also contracts jaundice.
