Pte. Joseph Shepherd

British Army King's (Liverpool) Regiment

from:Wigan, Lancs

My grandfather, Joseph Shepherd, enlisted in 1916 into the King's (Liverpool) Regiment. He subsequently transferred to the Labour Corps. He was injured in late 1918 or early 1919 whilst working in the Labour Corps on clean-up operations on the battlefields by an unexploded bomb going off. He lost a finger & suffered severe shrapnel wounds to his leg. He was invalided out and sent to Shotley Bridge Hosptital in Durham suffering from his injuries and Neuresthenia.
