  * General Officer Commanding

  [*] Translator’s note: there is a gap in the text here: “… in der Stellung verwendet.” It appears that a space has been left for later insertion of another word. In the context, the missing word is probably ‘2’ or ‘zweiten’ and the sentence would then read: “Until that time it is only to be employed on remedial works in the second line position.” The second line position or 2 Stellung is the major defensive German line running along the ridge crest – see maps.
