Ken - Royal Warwickshire Regimental Museum, St John's House, Warwick, CV34
4NF.

2/7th Bn suffered about 80 fatal casualties during an attack at Fromelles
19/7/16 (troops left the front line via open sally-ports, upon which the
Germans had not unexpectedly trained machine guns) - but I'm afraid I cant
confirm that they were actually in that area on the 17th - you probably need
to see what the war diary says.
