Cpl. Richard Walter Ringrose
British Army 4th London Btn. Royal Fusiliers
from:Ilford, Essex
Sadly there is only a medal record for Cpl. Richard Walter Ringrose. His medal card notes that he was part of the 4th London Battalion (location of the headquarters in City Rd would suggest that this is correct) but there exists a photograph taken in Nov 1918 of him with the 3rd Battalion football team. Were the two battalions together at this time? Dick's brother Harold enlisted with the 4th London. Harold later was part of the Labour Corps as it is understood he was injured and lost an eye and it was said "he never recovered from the war".
