Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei:
Ko te Tiamana Spring Offensive Seely, i hoki mai i Rānana, i karanga ki a Percy Beddington, he rangatira matua o te Fifth Army, i te 2am i te 24 o Poutu-te-rangi 1918, ki te korero ki a ia mo te korerorero i Rānana kua hinga te Fifth Army. Ko Beddington, i taea noa e ia te moe i te haora i mua, mo te wa tuatahi mai i te ata o te 21 o Maehe, i runga i te moenga puni i roto i tana tari, i tuhia e ia "i ngaro (i a ia) te riri, i kanga ia i runga i te pukepuke me te raorao mo te maia ki te whakaara (i a ia) me taua korero". I whakaae a Seely ano i muri mai kaore i tino nui i etahi ra i muri mai i tana whakahau i te CCB i te mahi, engari he mea nui i nga ra e whai ake nei i te wa i peia ai a Gough mai i te rangatira o te ope taua hei koati hara.
