Pte. Joseph Lavery
British Army Royal Irish Rifles
from:Soldierstown
In April 1916, Joseph Lavery had taken ill and was sent to the general hospital in Rouen, France, suffering from influneza. He went on to fight at the Somme and was found some days after going over the top in a shell hole suffering with severe shrapnel injury to the head. He was sent home to recover, we think, in the UVF hospital in East Belfast. He was discharged wounded and received the silver badge For King And Empire Services Rendered.
