George Cuthbert's Story
My grandfather, 'Cuth' Emerson, was in the RAMC Territorial Force and his picture has him wearing his Imperial Service badge; he then went into the 28th London Regt, 6489, before being Commissioned into the Royal Warwickshire Regiment as a 2nd LT. His name was published in the B'ham Daily Post casualty list 24 May 1917 as being wounded.
Thankfully, he survived the First World War and went on to serve in WW2 air force.
