My grandfather Thomas Arthur, known as Tom, was born on 5th October 1889 and lived in Stirling, Scotland. At the age of 18 he fulfilled a personal ambition of joining the Scots Guards and served initially as a private and then as a Lance Corporal in the 1st Battalion. Unfortunately, due to family circumstances, he had to leave in March 1910.We believe he volunteered at the outbreak of WW1 and joined the Royal Garrison Artillery 151st Heavy Battery IV Corps, seeing service in France, including at Ypres. He enjoyed some leave with friends at Whitesands Bay in August 1917 and again in May 1918 when he married his first wife. In September 1918 Tom was gassed and went through No 59 Casualty Clearing Station to No 22 Ambulance Train for return home.
I do not remember my grandfather ever speaking about his experiences in WW1 though my mother remembers him saying that it was a terrible experience and that his skin suffered long-lasting effects from the gas. We are very glad that he survived to raise a family of three children, and fifteen grand-children. He died in 1974.
