Pte. William Edward Henry Trumpeter
British Army 150 Coy. Army Service Corps
from:Ramsgate
The caption on the photo tells almost everything I know about William accept that he was born in Ramsgate Kent in 1894 and survived the war. He enlisted on 11th Dec 1914 in Woolwich and sailed to France on the Krepan from Southampton on the 27th July 1915. In 1917 he was awarded a Good Conduct Badge, but lost it in 1918 for being 'absent without permission from 0630 to 0700 on 1st May'. He was also docked 7 days pay. He was discharged on 12th June 1919.
His CO was Major L.M.Newell, his C.S.M was R.Clack and his Sgt was C.J.Holness. I do not know if they are in the photo. I would appreciate an update if this turns up any new leads.
