Gnr. Walter Reed
British Army No.6 Siege Battery Royal Garrison Artillery
from:Southampton
My father, Walter Reed, was born in Plymouth on 24th January 1893 and became a railway clerk. On 11th November, 1915, when living in Southampton, he enlisted in the Royal Garrison Artillery, Dover. On 26th of July, 1917, he was sent to France with the BEF in the 6th Siege Battery. He returned to England on 13th of December 1917, and was discharged on 27th of March, 1918, unfit for further service through neurasthenia. He never spoke to me of his experiences in the war.
