Gnr, Joseph Allen
British Army 12th Heavy Brigade Royal Garrison Artillery
from:Birmingham
Joseph Allen was my grandfather, who served in the Royal Garrison Artillery in WW1. He served as a Private, then Bombardier (1916), and finally Sergeant (1918). He joined the British Army around September 1904, and was amongst the British Expeditionary Force sent to fight in Europe at the outbreak of WW1 called The Old Contemptibles. I know nothing of his service before the war, but he remained in the British Army after the war serving in China where I believe he was appointed Sergeant Major.
