could any body give me some guidance please?

my grandad volenteered for the above 14 dec 1914, at the age of 47 can any body tell me if he would have given details of previous millitary service when enlisting? as I believe he served during the 1880s and also where would this battalion have served latter 1917 he was transferd to the D.L.I. for a month then to the labour corps

any info would be great.

Hello Pete,

Do you know if his service records still exist? His attestation document will have asked ' Have you ever served in any branch of His Majesty's Forces, naval or military, if so which?'

If you are lucky enough to find his service records you'll probably find the answers to your other questions too.

Good luck,

Sandie

Not without a name Pete, we're good on here but we're not clairvoyant.
