He left his wife and two young sons on 11th december 1915 to go and fight for his country. He was badly injured by an exploding gun/shell which lodged in his chest, he was put in an iron lung machine and was not expected to live. His wife travelled abroad on her own, to bring him home. He was very ill for a long time, but my grandmother nursed him back to health. George was discharged from the machine gun corps due to his wounds on 1st October 1918. He suffered all his life with his wounds and the metal that was still inside his chest. He worked as a jute mill overseer in Dundee and died in 1965, aged 74 years.
