Pte. George Ernest Humphries
British Army 8th (Post Office Rifles) Btn. London Regiment
from:Wandsworth, Surrey
George Humphries was gassed at some point during his service in France and for years after his return, would suddenly pull his sleeves up and scratch furiously at his skin on his forearms, trying to relieve the burning sensation that still troubled him. He returned to work in the Post Office in Wandsworth after the war and worked there until he retired in 1951. He died in 1962.
