Remembered Today:

50th Brigade, Royal Field Artillery, June/July 1917

I have a casualty (Gunner Alfred Gardiner) listed as k.i.a. on 14/7/17 in the SDGW, whereas in the CWGC his date of death is given as 14/6/17. Having already consulted the War Diary for July & discovered there is no mention of a fatality on the 14th, it would seem he died a month earlier, but I did not realise the dates were different until recently. By any chance does anyone know what the 50th Brigade was doing in mid-June 1917?

Many thanks

Nick

There were 2 deaths in 50th Brigade on 14th June, both D Battery (Dyer and Gardiner), no casualties in 50th Brigade on 14th July.

Hope that helps
