Our Parents Who Served

My father served in both wars he was still on the Reserve list of his British Army unit when war broke out in 1914. He was boarding with a Sergeant of the 48th Highlanders but they would not accept him, he was told that he was too short. During WWII he was with the VGC and traveled as far as India delivering mules for the Burma campaign. Below is a picture of him and his section taken in 1917, My father is the man standing on the left of the last row.
