Sgt. William James Dickinson
British Army Royal Horse Artillery
Born 18th July 1894, Bill Dickinson was in the Royal Horse Artillery during WW1 and certainly served in France in 1918, and maybe before. He made the rank of Sergeant, but declined a Commission.
He never talked about his wartime experiences. All I know as a fact was that he was in Bois Montigny, Montigny-en-Ostrevent, France in 1918. He survived the war, and later joined the Liverpool Police. In 1911 he lived at 43 New Park Street, Shrewsbury. He married Ivy Kirkpatrick in Bootle, Liverpool in 1922. He died in 1969.
Can anyone help identify which unit he was in, or any other details?
