He was discharged 5 weeks later after the Armistice was declared, he was discharged on the 12th of December 1918.

Family InformationIn Harriet's parents obituaries in 1945 and 1947, Harriet is referred to as Violet,"Mrs J Walters,of Darlinghurst", and "Mrs J Walters of Sydney",and not Mrs Fieldhouse. Phillip Edward Fieldhouse is recorded as marrying Margaret Catherine Sheehan in Sydney, NSW in 1943, so it is assumed that he and Violet divorced prior to this time.

April 1918,

VILLERS-BRETONNEUX.

Lance Corporal: 1959 Cyril HERBORN We had all sorts accommodation when out of the lines, but most under the circumstances, were satisfactory. Once I was billeted in a pig-sty. At Villers-Brettoneux however we were billeted in the woolen store where we were able to stock up on woolen socks and cardigans. The Germans took the town only once, but held it for only about a day.

The people that suffered most. I sometimes think, were the civilians. I remember one day investigating a house down the street where smoke had been seen coming from a chimney. We found a lonely old woman crouching over a brazier trying to start a fire. She was too old to evacuate as everyone had done.

The Germans were only about half a mile away and the town had been heavily shelled. Our troops took her to a safe place, but there must have been many other old and helpless that we weren't able to get out. We found some un matured wine in Villers-Brettoneux. I believe some men had been known to die as a result of drinking too much "green wine". Poddy HAYMAN and I were eventually trusted with the job of destroying the remains of this particular batch.

lieutenant: Richard Henry BLOMFIELD "Later parties were sent out to break all the bottles of wine. It was asking too much of some of the men, and there were instances of other methods being used to get rid of such material".

Henry was Wounded in Action on the 17th of April 1918 when he was at Villers-Bretonneux and he was Gassed and treated by the 55th Field ambulance near Bois de L'Abbe.

Henry remained in England and until being directed to report to the Overseas Training Battalion on the 4th of July and proceeded overseas for France on the 19th of July, and was Taken on in Strength with the 33rd Battalion on the 23rd. The 33rd remained at CITERNE through October and were still the on Armistice Day where a parade with a Brigade Sports Day.

"The 12th of November saw a special Thanksgiving Service which was held in the Cinema Hall in connection with the cessation of hostilities. In the afternoon three rugby football matches were played in the Inter-Company Competitions. "HQ" Company played "B" Company - "A" Company played "Transport Section" and "C" Company played "D" Company.

In the "HQ" v "B" Company match, "HQ" sustained their first defeat. "B" Company kicked off with the wind behind them and pressed almost throughout the first half. After about 10 minutes Lance Corporal: 1959 Cyril HERBORN scored a try. Lieutenant: Henry George "Poddy" HAYMAN failed to convert. Shortly afterwards Lieutenant: Henry George "Poddy" HAYMAN fell over the line and scored. He again failed to convert. "HQ" then rushed the ball down the field but were soon back in their own 25. At half time the scores were 6 to nil in favour of "B" Company. "HQ" played a better game in the second half but the defence of "B" Company was too strong. "B" Company worked down the line by a series of line kicks got close to "HQ"s line and Lance Corporal: 1959 Cyril HERBORN scored a try. Lieutenant: Henry George "Poddy" HAYMAN failed to convert. Scores 9 to nil. There was no change in the scores when the full time whistle sounded.
