Lt. Albert Whiston 6th/8th Btn. Worcestershire Regiment Am trying to find out about the war record for Lieutenant Albert Whiston, my uncle - not much to go on sadly. He was badly injured & invalided out of service in June 1919. Spending 2 years in hospital thereafter living a happy & fulfilled life. I am the only surviving member of my families. I always felt I should be very proud of uncle Bert. Needless to say he never talked of his war years & my aunt told me very little.

Cpl. Walter John Winters Army Service Corps (Remounts) My grandfather, Walter Winters signed up to the Army Service Corps (Remounts) on the 19th November 1916 at Budbrook Barracks, Warwick. The Approving Officer on his Army sign up form is the Colonel (looks like Carter), Commandant Remount Depot, Shirehampton.
He was transferred to the 6th Batt. Worcester Regt on the 17th August 1917. His records show he was in Belgaum on the 7th October 1917. He disembarked in Bombay on the 26th October 1917 and was again in Belgaum from the 8th April to 18th April 1918 with Impetigo. They also show he disembarked in Basra on the 3rd November 1918. On the 2nd July 1919 he was in Baku. He did not speak to us about his time in the Army.
