Rfmn. Frederick William Brown 12th Btn. King's Royal Rifle Corps

My Grandfather, Rifleman Frederick William Brown served with The King's Royal Rifle Corps from 1915 to 1917. He was at the Somme where he was injured in both legs by faulty detonators in Mills 5 hand grenades. The explosions wounded a number of soldiers. He was eventually sent back to the front and was at the Third Battle of Ypres where he was badly wounded on the 16th August 1917. He lay in a trench until someone thought they saw movement. He was taken to the Australian Hospital at Rouen. He had received GSW left shoulder and lung. He was eventually shipped home on 14th October 1917 and it is amazing that he survived until 1949 when I was five years of age. I am the only cousin to have known him. From the time he arrived home to the day he died he was in pain, as were so many other brave servicemen and women. His death certificate attests to the fact that he died from his war wounds. We all remember the horrific details of the 16th August 1917 when Grandad was so badly wounded. The conditions were appalling and how those soldiers managed eventually to over-run the enemy is a miracle. Their sacrifice for us will always be remembered with gratitude. RIP Poppy.
