233865 John Edward Norton British Army Tyneside Scottish Northumberland Fusiliers from:South Shields My father, Eddy Norton, served in the Tyneside Scottish regiment. I don't know anything about his time in the First World War, only that I've heard from a relative that he was a sniper. Going through some old photos I've came across him as a patient or orderly in Bermondsey Hospital. Some of the patients are in two-toned jackets. My father in one colour-toned jacket. Can anyone give information on this? Editors note: The jackets are known as Hospital Blues, worn by patients instead of their uniforms.
