my grandfather was wounded in Gallipoli was in the 1st of the 4th KOSB and I have found the war record on line, which vividly and horrifically describes the way in which he tries to help his cousin. His name WK Innes the website http://www.archive.org/stream/warrecord00browuoft/warrecord00browuoft_djvu.txt look at the pdf (other formats on the left hand side) to read it more clearly

I have only posted once so can't pm you.  If there is a picture of JB Innes in there I would be also grateful, having found that my Grandfather WK at the age of 21 cut off his cousin's arm JB Innes at Gallipoli (he died Cheering on his comrades) and then returned his skean dhu to James father who lived at Lindisfarne.  There is also a monument (empty lair ) to James at Wellogate Cemetary.

There is another website with this information if others are interested
where you  can get a read of the war record of the 4th KOSB battalion
War Record of 4th Battalion King's Own Scottish Borderers (January 1, 1920)
http://www.archive.org/stream/warrecord00browuoft/warrecord00browuoft_djvu.txt which is difficult to read but next to it on the left you can read it in a different format and see the picture of the battalion
