Michael Donnelly
British Army 3rd Battalion, E Company. Connaught Rangers
from:Belfast, N. Ireland
Michael Donnelly was my grandfather, whom I never met. Indeed, my own father only knew him for a short time as Michael died around 1932, when my father was about 3 years of age. According to what we do know about Michael, he allegedly drove the "chuck wagon" (food service) and served on the front lines during the Battle of the Somme. He was gassed during that battle which, eventually, led to a declined health and subsequent early death.
