Henry Hunt
Army
from:Preston, Lancashire.
I'm trying to find out more about my grandfather Henry Hunt, who died from the effects of gassing after the first world war. In 1915 he was working in a car factory in Preston, and I wonder if he was called up for his ability to drive a car. Also, I remember my father saying that Henry had worked with horses. Anyway, the only lead have is a photograph, where is wearing a standard Tommies uniform, but has an unusual shoulder badge in the shape of a star. Could this be army service corps? It is close the the cap badge worn by the Army Service Corps.
