First thing I was acquainted with was
Fred in dressing station with slight
wound in thigh, caught by a
sniper after 3 shots at 1000 yards
Range whilst effecting barb
wire entanglements in front
of inner defence trenches
on left of Monash Gully
Said good bye 9.15 AM when
he left for the Hospl ship lying
a short distance off West of Anzac
Cove where we now are, (Sicilia
3 masted, 7000 tonnes Hospl Ship)
He was looking a little pale
but was feeling “allright”
according to his own words
Rooney’s gone & now Fred
What’s to be the fate of Me?
