Answer:

The diary entry for 1 July 1916, the first day of the battle, reads: "Something awful. Never witnessed anything like it before.

"After a bombardment of a week the Germans mounted their own trenches and the infantry reckon that every German had a machine gun."

Five days later, Pte Diggins wrote: "A shell drops just a few yards in front of our billet. We were all out except three of the boys.

"One was wounded. A good job I was not on my bit as a piece of shell buried itself in my candle. Oh, you lucky devil."

The diary is due to be sold at a medals and militaria auction in Derbyshire on 20 March, with a guide price of £300 to £400.
