Faversham WW1

[Kevin Keeley]

I have come across a photograph of my father with other soldiers on the back of which is written "Mick with his pals at Faversham." He enlisted in 3rd West Lancashire RFA in August 1914, aged 16, but from his MIC seems not to have gone to France until October 1915 when 55th Division were attached to 2nd Canadian Division. Apart from finding his service records is there any way of working out what he did from enlisting to going to France? Where was "training" done? Would initial training be done locally in Liverpool and then moved to Faversham?

I am continually impressed just reading various posts - a lot of knowledge out there which beats the television.
