Pte. William Elijah Levitt
British Army Army Cyclist Corps
from:Hull
My grandfather, Billy Levitt grew up in Hull and enlisted in the British Army on 25th May 1914 making him 18 years of age. He was the youngest of about 10 siblings and was a plumber's apprentice before entering the army. He was transferred to the Army Cyclist Corps toward the end of 1916.
Although I never knew him I have gained knowledge about him from his Army papers. He was transferred back to the UK for demobilisation on 25th January 1919.
