L/Cpl. James Porter
British Army 7th Btn. Royal Sussex Regiment
I have a diary that my Grandad wrote between November 1914 and August 1917 giving a pretty detailed account of his recruitment process in 1914 at Aldershot to when he convalesced from being shot at Longleat (1917).
He was Lance Corporal James Porter of 7th battalion Royal Sussex Regiment.
He dedicates his book 'In affectionate recollections and in admiration of the brave officers and N.C.O's and men of the 7th battalion Royal Sussex regiment with whom I fought side by side for two years in France. Fighters all - sometimes bent but never broken'
