Jagers seen along the edge of the woods facing Kalafat defences.Cossack infantry moved to our right flank.Cossack cavalry persistently active in foraging.

No contact with flotilla established yet.

1 sentry missing, presumed captured last night.

Nothing further to report.

Update -

Jagers reported in strength at forward positions.

No foraging patrols seen last night

Cossack regrouped on our right flank.

Russian Imperial band playing thru last light.

Uhlan piquet posted with many of their officers visiting it.

Indications are , attack imminent expect to face the assault at dawn.

Re: ***** H - HOUR Plus *****

The dawn Attack went in ,and the result was expected. More reinforcements for both sides are being pressed.

Some expected reinforcements did not make teh dealine due to poor transportation routes being congested.
It appears a much bigger battle will ensue.
