221773 CSM. Joseph Brown British Army 6th Btn. Durham Light Infantry from:Oakenshaw My Grandfather Joseph Brown was a member of 2nd Volunteer Battalion Durham Light Infantry before it became the 6th DLI (TF) in 1908. He served throughout the war before being honourably discharged on the 31st January 1918 due to injury's with the rank of Company Serjeant Major (CSM). Unfortunately I never had the chance to talk to him, also along with a great many records his were destroyed during the blitz of WW2. Like him I also served with the TA, with the 7th Battalion The (Durham)Light Infantry based at Bishop Auckland and Durham. I would like to think I served in some of the same drill halls, and I did his memory proud.
