Pte. Stephen G. Cleverly
British Army 7th Btn Gloucestershire Regiment
from:Chelteham
This is picture of the 7th Gloucestershire Regiment on 2nd of December 1916 of men convalescing abroad after the Gallipoli campaign from the Cheltenham Chronicle.
Stephen Cleverly is listed in the picture and I can tell it's him due to the large ears that run in the family.
I also have his WW1 medals.
He was also in the Northumberland Fusiliers.
Family history is that he was wounded at Kut in (now) Iraq with a grazing bullet head wound and bullet leg wound.
His service record shows that he went into service 6th June 1915 which coincides with other soldiers who went to the Gallipoli campaign on the exact same date, same unit.
