Depends on the date. CSM Guy would only have been with them from around July 1918 onwards and that is assuming he wasn't in another LC company first.

Cannot prove this without his personal record but I suspect there may be an error in the London Gazette. Most of the men with numbers arround his are in PoW Companies and so I wonder whether he was in 37 PoW Company rather than 37 Company? Have you checked WO 363?

To be in the LC a man was unfit for front line service.

I have down loaded Thomas's MIC doesnt tell me much more other than originally Royal Irish Fusiliers and then Labour Corps. It has on it L/C/101/ B 233. thetre was some corresppondance acording tp the card in June 1950. I will have to ask my mate about this.

Cheers
