Hi,
does anybody have access to the war diaries for the 1st Bn East Surrey, I am trying to find out the circumstances of death with regards to 186139 Lt Ian Kinnear Geddes who is listed a KIA on the 12 Nov 1942.

Cheers,

Not diaries, but answer here:

"Lieut I K Geddes, the Intelligence Officer, had most unfortunately picked up an object which looked like a fountain pen but turned out to be a German anti-personnel bomb."
