Joseph Alexander Hurt
British Army 5th Btn. Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry
from:London
Joseph was with the DCLI. He was injured in some way early in the war and spent some time in hospital having burns and shrapnel in his back, it led to the loss of his hearing also. By the time he returned to the fighting there were very few people left from those he originally served with. He moved through France and the low countries and on into Germany where he appears to have remained after the war's end. He was stationed in Hamburg at one point and we have photos of him boxing at the 43rd Wessex Divison army boxing championships when his team were the winners.
I would be grateful if anyone who knows of him or any mention of him could let me know.
