Private Joseph Nunn. 39908 1/7th Hants Reg. was one of those men. We are doing a project to commemorate WW1 in our village, Whittlesford in Cambridgeshire. We aim to find out about the men who went from the village, thought to be about 118 in a village of approx. 720 people. We are working on finding out more about him.
39908 Private Joseph Nunn served with the 1st/7th Battalion Hampshire Regiment during WW1. There follows a record of the Battalions movements as part of 128th (Hampshire) Brigade in the 43rd (Wessex) Division. The Division was sent to India under peacetime conditions but remained ready for active service. His battalion moved to Aden in January 1918.
His medal card merely records the award of the British War and Victory Medals with no details of any unusual events.
