Mined!  A Wonderful Escape And Its Heroic Sequel.


Mined! A Wonderful Escape And Its Heroic Sequel.

On September 30th 1915, a British trench near Zillebeke was mined by the Germans and almost destroyed. Lance Corporal C. Leadbeater, of the 1/5th Battalion Lincolnshire Regiment (TF) was in charge of the listening post at the end of the trench at the time. The violence of the explosion blew him bodily over the parapet and inflicted severe injuries, but, notwithstanding his sufferings, he crawled back to the ruined trench, and, collecting his men, ordered them to open rapid fire in anticipation of a German attempt to secure the mine crater. This prompt action saved the situation. The German infantry faltered and the attack was not pressed home. Leadbeater remained with his men until ordered to go to the dressing station. He was awarded the D.C.M.
