 On 26 August, the battalion was on the move again, taking up positions for the night along the Seine near Bourgtheroulde.The next day the Camerons continued the advance through Bourgtheroulde, meeting determined resistance as the German rearguard fought fanatically to protect their line of retreat across the Seine.By late evening the battalion had consolidated their position near La Chênaie, overlooking the Seine and effectively cutting off the German escape route.
