F Burnett

 
 

Claro Times - 8th October 1915

Photo - it is only a few months since Mr F Burnett, well know to Harrogate people as chairman of the ILP Branch, enlisted in the 12th West Yorkshire Regiment, but news has been received this week that he was in the famous charge which resulted in the capture of Hill 70 and Loos. He was struck in the neck by a bullet, but it is good news to hear that he is progressing so favourably that he hopes to be home in a few days.

[This could be Fred Burnett, who becomes Chairman Harrogate Ex-Service Men's Association]
