My Grandfather Murdo Macrae joined the 6th Battalion, Highland Light Infantry in 1908. In 1914 his call up was delayed because his wife died giving birth to his son Duncan Macrae. Grandfather was recalled in 1916 and while on the ranges in France was shot in the head. He was demobbed in 1917 and become a shell inspector in Beardmore Foundry Parkhead. He lived until 1959 despite being told by the army doctors that he may not live 6 months or go blind.
