Lt. Bruce Samuel Kirkland Guise-Moores MC & Bar.
British Army 110th Heavy Battery Royal Garrison Artillery
My grandfather Bruce Guise-Moores, came from a military family, his father became a general and two uncles became colonels.
He was awarded the Military Cross for getting men and horses out of a burning barn, under fire and a Bar to the MC for digging men out of a collapsed trench.
He enjoyed the camaraderie of the Army more than anything else. After the war he fought in Russia with the White Russians then posted to India, initially with the RGA then the Indian Army, before coming back to England.
He left the Army in the early 30's being bored with peacetime soldering and joined the prison service, only to join up again in 1939, and served in Egypt.
