Circumstances of Death
|
Frank is listed as dying of wounds on 15 Feb 1917. Unfortunately we cannot tell when or where Frank was wounded and because Amara was a major military hospital centre with seven general hospitals and some smaller units being stationed there we cannot be sure what month he might have been wounded in. Therefore we have not been able to provide any further information about how Frank was wounded. |
