Once at school, we were at Albecq House School at the time, there was an explosion in the trees. I think it was a shell or something that exploded. We all ran inside and sat down and the person next to me, who happened to be my friend Ernest de Garis suddenly started whimpering, and he鈥檇 been hit, actually, in the leg. He had a piece of shrapnel in the leg, and he had to go into hospital to have it removed. There was also a girl, I think her name was Valerie Le Cheminant, and she was hit as well, I鈥檓 not quite sure where, but it could have been serious. They both got over it.
