Private Reginald Jardine
Reggie served with the Canadian Machine Gun Corps in the First Battalion from March 3, 1918 to October 1, 1918. For three days, one of their comrades lay wounded and suffering in no mans land, calling out and begging for someone to come and help him. Finally, on September 27, Reggie couldn't take it any more. While he was dragging the soldier back to the trenches, he was shot in the back by a sniper. It severed his spinal cord. He died at home of septicaemia.
