Pte. Herbert Hall
British Army 5th Battalion Kings Royal Rifle Corps
from:Millers Dale, Derbyshire
Bert Hall was my grandfather. He died in Droylesdon, Manchester in 1963. I don't know much about his war service, I am still looking into the history of his time as a soldier. He enlisted on the 7th of January 1915 and fought in France. I remember he suffered the rest of his life from the effects of Mustard Gas used during WW1.
Bert was mustered from Tunnelers Mate to Platelayer Proficient on 5th March 1917. He was a quarryman before enlisting.
