British Army 3rd Btn. Royal Irish Rifles
from:London
My Grandfather, Percival Sellick was on the front line in Ypres for three years. He was injured with shrapnel an hospitalised but returned to the front line a few months later.
He was shot in the pelvis in the summer of 1918 and was retired wounded. While he survived the war, he later died due to the complications caused by his injuries. He left a widow and seven children, some very young, including my father who was only six.
