Pte. John Stewart
British Army 6th Battalion Highland Light Infantry
from:Glasgow
My Grandfather, John Stewart, enlisted in the 6th Battalion Highland Light Infantry on 14/1/1915. He served at Gallipoli, Mudros, Suez Canal, Gaza and Palestine, before transferring to the Western Front with the 52nd Lowland Division in early 1918, where he survived till the end of the war. He was demobbed in 1919, then rejoined the 6th HLI on 2/9/1939, aged 46. A glutton for punishment or maybe just in need of a job at the end of the great depression.
