———————————————-
24th April 1915. There were the usual inspections during the day and then we fell in at 7-30 to go to the trenches. When we arrived at Kemmel we got the awful news that the 8ths had been heavily shelled by a trench Howitzer and there were about 28 men buried, as near as they could tell. All the stretcher bearers of 6th and 8ths with 30 R.A.M.C. men had to go to help to bring them out. That night we got seven men dead and fourteen wounded. We all stayed at the dressing station and went to bed about 4-30 a.m. tired out and wet through for it had rained all night.

Thanks Peter. I believe you let me have copy of that photo several years ago. I have included details about Peter White in ‘1913’ under G Company and also on the ‘Ypres’ page although that is still a work in progress. I have a copy of his service record and can send it (if you don’t already have it).
