Charles George Sheppard
British Army Berkshire Regiment
My Grandfather, Charles George Sheppard, served with the Berkshire Regiment. His medal card says that he first entered the Theatre of War on 29th November 1914. It doesn't say which battalion he was in or joined. His Silver War Badge record states that he joined the Regiment in July 1913. He was wounded in June 1916 and discharged.
The only other information I have about him is that he was gassed at some time, he had a gunshot wound in the leg and he was missing for a while. He also said that they had to take a 'hill'.
