Pte. William Joseph Hyslop
British Army 2nd Btn. Rifle Brigade
William Hyslop served during World War 1 in The Rifle Brigade with the 2nd and 13th Battalions and with the 11th Kings Royal Rifle Corps from Nov 1914 till Feb 1919. At some time, he suffered from a gas attack, and in the last weeks of the war was captured. His details are part those records lost in 1942 due to enemy action.
Unable to find work on discharge, he volunteered to join the BEF intervention in Russia, to fight the Bolsheviks. This campaign ended in Sep 1919. He received a copy of Bolos & Barishynas, the doings of the Sadleir-Jackson Brigade. In his copy he has written details including 45th Batt Royal Fusiliers Reg. No.128992. No.1 Machine Gunner.
Several years later in civilian life, his health started to deteriorate as an effect of gassing. However, according to his family, his application for a pension was rejected on the grounds he could not prove the effect resulted from gas attacks in World War 1. As his grandchild I can recall the agony suffered by the destruction of one lung and the slow decay of the other. He died in 1951.
