Description

DescriptionAt the bottom right hand corner of the photograph a note reads: 'Fielder, Warminster'. Warminster is located in England and contained several military camps in surrounding villages during the First World War. In the early war years these were predominantly occupied by British troops, but were later taken over by the Australian, Canadian and New Zealand units. This photograph is part of the collection of Corporal Daniel Scanlon who served overseas in the First World War. Dan was born in Ipswich and the family lived in Darling Street. He was 42 years of age when he enlisted on 27 May 1915. Daniel was promoted to Corporal before being sent home in October 1917 and discharged on medical grounds in January 1918 (If you are able to identify the men in this photograph please contact the Digital Archivist).
