Pte. Albert Charles Webb
British Army 5th Btn. Welch Regiment
from:Penrhiwceiber, S Wales
My Grandfather, Albert Charles Webb, known as Charlie, served in 5th Welch Regiment from 9 August 1915 to 28 March 1917 when he was discharged on medical grounds having frostbite in both feet. He eventually lost most of his toes.
His daughter,Beryl, said that a Mr Workman covered her father's toes with grease from the guns in an attempt to save the toes.
