Vincent Myles McCann 75th Field Company Royal Engineers Vincent McCann joined the British Army on 19th of September 1914. He was a fitter by trade, working in the Harland and Wolff shipyard from about 1910 to 1914 as an apprentice (during the time the Titanic was being built). His position in the company was as an Iron Turner or lathe operator. He was initially posted to the 122nd Field Company and sent to train at Clandeboye Camp in Co. Down, Ireland, but friction between the Catholics and Protestants resulted in his being transferred to the 75th Field Company which was training at Moore Park, Kilworth in Co. Cork, Ireland. His company was mobilized in July 1915 and they arrived in France in September, where they were attached to the 1st Guards Brigade, which was forming in the Lumbres region in Northern France.
