Hi

My grandfather was also in 1 Bn having enlisted in 1913, discharged 1925. I have yet to discover why he got his medals for IBn and 2Bn. His IG records are incomplete, as he also enlisted in 1939.

The war diary for the dates given, show that some men were returned to England because of injuries and "bad teeth".
