Notes - Died at age 25. killed on active service, gravestone inscribed: 129th Duke of Connaught's Own Baluchis
Charles served in the trenches at Ypres & Givenchy, being recommended for the MC, he was killed at Kibata in Tanzania (German East Africa), again being recommended for the MC. There is a book that I just got the 4th battallion, 129th Duke of Connaughts Own, where CSB gets 15 mentions (by WS Thatcher). I also have his medals, his death penny & photograph. You can read excerpts of the book on the Amazon website. = Ancestry message from Miles Ballaam.
The Battle of Kibata (1916) was fought during the East African Campaign of World War I.
