On the 27th December the battalion was suddenly ordered to produce a rifle company at full war establishment, plus two sections of armoured cars, to go to Goes in South Beveland, where they would come under No. 4 Special Service Commando. A compo­site company was organised by choosing the fittest officers and men from A and D Companies, and on the 31st December they moved off. No one was told at the time exactly what their role would be, but it was later discovered that it consisted of holding part of the line under No. 4 Special Service Com­mando Brigade opposite the Scheldt estuary, with the Germans still entrenched on the opposite island of Schouwen en Duiveland. The composite company remained in that area till the 10th February, when it rejoined at St. Jean Barracks.
