Great Grandfather originally enlisted at too early an age, he was discharged and had to re-enlist at the proper age.  He was a soldier all of his life, was involved in WW1 from the start and nearly made it through, although he foresaw his death in his last letter to his wife Rose Emma.  My paternal grandfather was his eldest son.
