Henry Green is my great grandfather. On 27th June 1917 he was called up to join the King's Royal Rifles. However, because he was over 30 years old (born in 1886), he was attached to the Machine Gun Corps, 5th Battalion. He was discharged from the MGC on 20th August 1919, but Henry remained as battalion cook until 18th November 1919. He recieved his official Army discharge on 20th December 1919. Henry died on 30th March 1960 and is buried in Eltham Cemetery in London.
