Harry Farr was shot because he was a coward, he used "being ill" as an excuse to not fight along the front line.
He was told to go back to the trenches but refused telling Regimental Sergeant Major Haking, that he 'could not stand it'. Haking replied in a dishonorable manor, lets just say it wasn't nice.
And in his saying he got told he was going to be shot.
Hoped this helped, preparing for a history exam, came across this question thought i may answer for you x
Sir Douglas Haig Shot Harry Farr for Cowardice. There are lots of different views on whether it was the correct choice or not.
