| 3 | Recce Sqn doing field firing on the LONGFRAMLINGTON Range. When some no. 36 grenades had been thrown, some officers went forward to destroy some 'Blinds' when 2/Lieut NWL Fellowes accidentally trod on a buried 'Blind'. This almost certainly was an old grenade and was not one of those which had just been thrown. 2/Lieut Fellowes was seriously wounded in the side and was taken to hospital. Captain RHW Ellis, Captain WNM Robb, and Lieut RJ Pearce were slightly injured. |
