Lieutenant Hart [X550/1/81]
Tuesday 26th June 1917
The adjutant
of 2nd Battalion, Bedfordshire Regiment mentioned to me on the telephone that they
have had particularly unfortunate casualties. They are at Dickebusch, behind
the lines near Ypres, and have been practising various military arts. Earlier
today three other ranks were wounded when a rifle grenade exploded prematurely
during one of these practice sessions. Lieutenant W E Hart has also been sent to
hospital, but this is as a result of sickness rather than an accident.
