Itowson Posted 27 October , 2023 Share Posted 27 October , 2023 I’m trying to find out as much as possible about this cartoon. In particular, who Edgar a Lambert might have been. It was presented to my grandfather ‘Arthur Geoffrey Bate ‘ after serving the entire war, I believe, as a surgeon in France Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bate: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2211031/pdf/brmedj04226-0057.pdf * * * Only a guess for Edgar A Lambert, probably completely wrong: Lieutenant R.A.S.C. - MIC, https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D3285606 SWB eligible 8.9.19 Was he attached to No. 9 C.C.S.? Find My Past – There are several possible records for Lieutenant E.A.
