Pte Frank Kingsley-Norris (Lilydale), 1st Light Horse Field Ambulance: Is sent to England to work as a medical orderly. In an excerpt from his auto-biography ‘No Memories for Pain’ –‘I was posted as medical orderly to No 1 Australian Hospital at Harefield Park in Middlesex, the private home of a patriotic Australian, set in acres of beautiful parkland with age-old oaks, elms and chestnuts. There I met up with two other medical students from Melbourne, also orderlies, and on our off duty time we wandered over the lovely countryside.
One Saturday night there was a zeppelin raid, a mild affair compared with the blitz twenty-five years later, but some damage was done. On the Sunday afternoon we all went out to have a look and came to a large hole just off Oxford Street’.
