A. John Rodgers

British Army Royal Army Medical Corps

from:Burton on Trent

My great grandfather, Jack Rodgers joined a hospital ship as a volunteer on June 30th 1917 at Greenock in Scotland after being assigned to it due to being declared unable to fight on the front after injuries sustained while serving in France. He kept a diary while on this ship and describes his duties and life aboard ship. There are many harrowing tales of injured service personnel, of all nationalities and faiths. His last entry is on 5th of May 1919 when it arrived in Gibraltar.
