Rflmn. Leonard Grimley
British Army 13th Btn. Kings Royal Rifle Corps
from:Macks Road, Bermondsy
(d.28th April 1917)
Unfortunatly, not much is known about Leonard Grimley, but from what I can understand he was killed near Infantry Hill, South of Gavrelle. Weather conditions on that day was heavy snow. Heavy shelling and machine gun fire was present in the area where he was killed. Exact cause of death is unknown. I now visit his grave at least twice a year to honor him since tracing him 3 years ago. I only have photos of his wife so I would love any pictures of the 13th KRRC.
