Sgt. George Compton

British Army 6th Btn. Kings Shropshire Light Infantry

from:Tardebigge, Worcs.

I have recently become the owner of a silver cigarette case engraved with the following inscription. "Sergt Geo. Compton Kings Shropshire Light Infantry 1915-19. In recognition of his service in the great war. From Tardebigge Parish." On the reverse of the case is engraved "France & Belgium"

I have done a small bit of research and discovered his Regimental Number was 11992 and he was a Private, Lance Corporal and eventually a Sergeant.
