He enlisted 15/9/1914 weighing 148 lbs and standing 5' 7". He was posted 30/4/1917. His Army Service Record survives but much of it is illegible. At some point he was 'hit by a piece of shrapnel' and was noticed 'spitting blood each morning'. However, this wound was not fatal because elsewhere in the record he was 'presumed dead'.
