Cpl. Peter Highcock

British Army Machine Gun Corps

from:St.Helens, Lancs

(d.14th Nov 1918)

My granddad, Peter Highcock joined the Lancs Hussars but they were nearly wiped out. About 200 who survived then joined the Kings Liverpool, later he joined the MGC. I don't know the exact dates. He was attached to the Americans and while they were crossing a river he was shot by a sniper, the only casualty. The river was the Legrande Helpe. He was attached to 25th Battalion. He was shot on the 7/11/18 and died on the 14/11/18.
