SMG65 Posted 12 August , 2005 Share Posted 12 August , 2005 Kevin What information do you have on him? 5 Bn DLI was based around the Stockton area but that does not mean he went into this battalion. He could have went into one of the service battalions. Have you looked for his medal card? Give me what info you have and I'll see if I can help.

SMG65 Posted 13 August , 2005 Share Posted 13 August , 2005 Kevin According to the Medal Cards there are three soldiers with the name J R Moore who served with the DLI in the Great War, one of them was a Private. To view them costs £3.50 each on the National Archives website. If the Private is a John Robert and the other two have different names for the J R, then you could have your man. Let me know if you need help. SEAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
