Carried by German soldiers

"It was while crossing [trenches at Messines] that I was knocked out. My wounds were quickly dressed by the field ambulance and I was soon on my way out. After the stretcher bearers had carried me about a quarter of a mile, a batch of Huns came along and six of them carried me for about a mile to the dressing station."

"I spent about a week in a hospital at St Omer in France and then commenced my journey to dear old Blighty. For about two days I was shifted about in stretchers, motor ambulances, Red Cross trains and the hospital ship until I finally reached my present home, the No.2 New Zealand hospital, Walton on Thames."
