Sergeant Boulger Taking His Heavy Cable Cart Across Half A Mile Of Fire Swept Ground.


Sergeant Boulger Taking His Heavy Cable Cart Across Half A Mile Of Fire Swept Ground.

On the 30th October 1914, the Allied forces, which were advancing northeast and east of Ypres, were vigorously attacked by a large German force, but not only were all the attacks repulsed, but progress was made. It was during these operations that Sergeant H. W. R. Bougler, Signal Service, R.E., won the D.C.M. under circumstances of great danger. Although a certain portion of the ground, over half a mile in extent, was so heavily fire swept, he took his heavy cable cart across it, accompanied by a few men, and succeeded in establishing communications with our forward lines.

 On October 31st 1914, the first battle of Ypres reached its most critical stage.  For a time General Allenby held the whole lne from Klein Zillebeke to Hollebeke, with only his cavalry and two exhausted battalions of the 7th Indian Brigade.  While numerous German shells were bursting over the trenches at Hollebeke, a British officer, commanding a machine gun detachment, was wounded and all except one of the guns were put out of action.  Though wounded he, Sepoy Khudadad, of the 129th Duke of Connaughts Own Baluchia, with great courage stayed to work his gun until all his comrades of the detachment had been killed.  He was awarded the V.C. for most conspicuous gallantry.
