Grandad and 2nd battle of Arras

[minnieminer]

My grandad enlisted in the 13th London regiment  on the 21 Feb 1916.
He was wounded in the 2nd battle of Arras and was shipped off to hospital for some months to regain the use of his hand. Is it possible to
find out which hospital he went to and find out more info?
I was told by my father that while in hospital grandad  was visited by Princess Alice who was a patron of the regiment. She was not visiting him but the officers and unfortuately they had all been killed in battle so he was given the flowers that she brought. 
His army number #492207 I believe he was discharged Para 392 XV1
Kings regiment.
thanks

thanks

can't help you with the hospital, i think you'd need to see his service record which may (if you are lucky) give the details of how he went up through the chain (through field ambulances and casualty clearing station etc) to arrive finally in a hospital

however can i point out the KR does not stand for Kings Regiment, it is Kings Regulations Paragraph 392 section XV1 (16) No longer physically fit for service

Thank you for that information I have learned something.  I have been to
the National Archives at Kew and found little information but perhaps it is
all I am going to find. Short service attestation, a very short correspondence from the ministry of pensions to his commanding officer
and a note in reference to him receiving a Kings certificate.
There is another photocopy of the back of statement of service with very
little on it but I can just barely make out 1st depot and then the rest is
unclear, not that there is much to see anyways.
Thanks for pointing out KR does not stand for Kings Regiment I will inform
the rest of the family!
