Pte. Evan Lewis Phillips
British Army South Wales Borderers
from:Bryngwyn, Llanilar, Cardiganshire
My father, Evan Lewis Phillips, enlisted in the South Wales Borderers on 16 January 1916. He saw action at Ypres and was later a patient at the War Hospital in Norwich. He was presented with an inscribed watchchain by his home community following his demob, for giving blood to a wounded soldier. He was in Norwich apparently to give blood. He had a rare blood group. He also had badly frost-bitten ears. That is all I can report.
