After a restful two weeks at Steenvoorde the 22nd Battalion left billets at 7.30am and marched via Abeele to Dominion Camp in the Ouderdam area. The next day they then marched to a poor camp at Dickebusch where the Battalion formed part of Brigade Reserve to AIF 2nd Division. The strength of the Battalion in the field at the end of the month was 16 Officers and 486 other ranks.
