jay dubaya Posted 14 August , 2019 Share Posted 14 August , 2019 The war diary records the days either side of the 17th the enemy sending over minenwerfers, sausages and rifle grenades. One may suspect that McDermid was a casualty as a result of these. J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
