Sgt. G. Doors
British Army Royal Army Medical Corps
from:
I have just bought a pair of rather movingly hand-made trench art coffee pots from a charity shop. The main body’s of each are German shell cases, both dated 1917, the handles appear to be brass coolant tubes and the lids of each are mounted with three bullets. Both coffee pots carry roughly the same hand engraved inscription:
Sgt Doors G, RAMC
France 1914,15,16,17,18
Italy 1918
I would love to know more about this man who had such an apparently long service record, where he served and what he was doing in Italy, I would guess after the war, when he made these.
Any information that could add the personal story to these stirring relics of the war would be very gratefully received.
