Lieutenant Acting Captain A G Pape <br />British Army, Royal Fusiliers<br /><br />Just been looking at Regimental War Diaries for 2nd Battalion, Royal Fusiliers on www.ancestry.co.uk and came across a reference to Lt. A.G. Pape being Court Martialled on 17th April 1918. Poor man! Looks like he was OK as he made it to Acting Captain.<br />Lt A.G.Pape was arrested on the 15th April 1918 for deserting the line from 4pm the 12th to noon the 13th and was put under the charge of 2nd Lt J Pearson.On the 17th April 1918 he was tried by special Court Martial, and on the 21st He and 2nd Lt Pearson went to XV Corps Reinforcement Camp at Linghem. There are no further mentions of either in the remainder of the War Diary.<br />Lt Pape had been with the Battalion from 1915 and was MID LG 22/5/17<br />I had seen this a few months ago in the 2nd RF war diary as well and had wondered what it was about. I have his mention in the courts martial ledger which states he was tried by FCGM on 17 April 1918 in the field for cowardice, desertion and leaving his post. He was sentenced to be cashiered and to serve either 3 or 13 years penal servitude (the pencil marking slightly obscures this). However, this sentence was quashed by the Adjutant General at some time after 28 May when the files were received in London. Sadly that's all the detail I'm aware of. I presume after advice from legal brains at the war office there was either insufficient evidence or there was fault with the case was brought. I presume he was sent back to the UK with Pearson as escort until his sentence was confirmed.<br />He bounced back though - he was awarded a Croix de Guerre in Dec 1918 and served in some capacity in the Second World War though he was declared bankrupt in the 1920s - all from London Gazette. <br /><br /><br />
