I am researching information on a book that I am writing about PTSD across the generations and wondered if anyone has a copy of the war diaries for Sept/Oct 1918. Looking for information about Cpl Edwin Newing A Coy 7 Buffs. He was critically wounded around this time and I require more info than I can get through normal channels. His records were lost in the fire at Kew in 1940. Thanks for your help! John
I have the diary and will take a look but Other Ranks are rarely mentioned.
I can’t find any Edward Newings in The Buffs during WW1. The only Newing who served in the 7th Battalion was AE Newing, a Special Reservist from Ladywell who was wounded in Oct / Nov 1916. He also served with the 8th Battalion. He survived the war
Thanks Mick, really appreciate your help, I have some others for further investigation where just out of interest where did you get hold of the diaries? John
