My fathers George Jackson, as a 19 year old in 1911 enlisted in the 1st/7th (TA) Battalion Lancashire Fusiliers in October 1911 at Cross Lane Barracks Salford. In the war he went to E Egypt then Gallipoli. George was wounded on 6/7th August 1915 was sent to Hospital in Malta then England. When recovered he was sent to 3rd training Battalion near Hull in January 1917 he was transferred to the Labour Corps and was sent to France where I believe he was wounded again.
