    Believed Killed in Action

    STATEMENT BY No. 2719527 Lance-Sergeant WYLIE, D.C.M., 1st Battalion IRISH GUARDS ON THE DEATH OF No. 2718799 C.S.M. KINANE, M.


    On 27 April 1943 I was with C.S.M. KINANE laying a minefield. A mortar bomb dropped beside us and on examination of the C.S.M. I found he had been wounded at the base of the skull. I felt for pulse beats and there was none. Without doubt C.S.M. KINANE was definitely killed.

    Signed L/Sgt J WYLIE, 1st Battalion IRISH GAURDS
