Pte. Charles William Foster
British Army Northhamptonshire Regiment
Unfortunately, neither Charles Foster's service record or pension record were accessible, they were possibly destroyed during the Second World War.
As indicated on his Medal Rolls Index Card, Private Charles W. Foster, of the Northamptonshire Regiment, entered the French theatre on 9th of June 1915 and thereby qualified for the 1914-15 Star. At some point during his overseas service, Private Foster was transferred to the Labour Corps. According to his Medal Rolls Index Card and WW1 Service Medal and Award Rolls, 1914-1920, Private Foster was awarded the British War Medal and Victory Medal in addition to the 1914-15 Star. Effective 16th of March 1919, he assumed Class Z status.
