Brien has a WFA Card. Although SWB list shows discharged due to wounds the card shows pension paid for amoebic dysentery attributable to his war service.

I have had dysentery. South America. Not something I would wish on anyone; Brien has my sympathies.

 

I was 5000 metres up a volcano at -18C when it started. I will leave the rest to everyone's imagination. Needless to say I did not summit. Lost 30lbs in a little over a week.

Hi all, Up date, found WAF cards for all three men, Arthur Richardson Ref; 13/MR/1856 Thomas Sutton ref; 13/MS/2792

           Christopher Brien Ref; 13/MB/229 has anybody access to these cards Ancestry looking for $50 or $8 a month on top of Subscription to view them. Arthur wounded 15/11/16 Gillemount I know I spelled it wrong, any help at all would be much appreciate.
