| HI Kev no mate,
I had already picked up one wounding in Normandy. The second time it was while I was out at night, about one in the morning. being I was one of the original crew this 19 year old was a trusted Vet, and was trusted to go back from the front line to get the next days battle orders.
That was on the Overloon Venraij road in Holland. On my way back with the orders big bang, big blast....Goodnight nurse. Fractured lower spine, lost top of my knee and one leg broken so badly that there was not enough bone left to heal together, Took me about two years to recover. More tea Vicar.
