WO2 Walter Thornton MID.

British Army 10th Btn. York and Lancaster Regiment

from:Barnsley

Walter Thornton was Mavis' grandfather, he served in a TA from 1909, but joined up in 1915 and was in France from late 1915 until early 1919. Although she never met him as he died in 1947, three years before her birth, we know that he possibly received a second MID and the MSM.

Additional Information:

This was my great grandfather, l have met Mavis as a child. Two of his children died while he was overseas. I have copies of his military history sheet.
