Albert6748 Posted 26 May , 2014 Share Posted 26 May , 2014 Hi, My grandfather served with the 32nd Battalion AIF in France and was wounded twice. I am unable to decipher the cause of his first wound (right buttocks). Can somebody assist? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
