My grandfather, Harry Baker, served in WW1. Recently I inherited 2 letters addressed to my grandmother from the 32nd Stationary Hospital.
The first letter is dated 27th of October 1916, and informs my grandmother that my grandfather had been wounded in the neck and right shoulder.
The second letter is dated 30th of October 1916 and informs my grandmother that Harry had undergone one operation and was recovering and that he would need to undergo a second operation when he was back in England.
The letter is signed by E.B.B. Towse, Captain, Gordon Highlanders.
