Pte. Charles "Mick" Cushing
British Army 7th Battalion. Ox & Bucks Light Infantry
from:Ireland
I never knew my father, Charles Cushing. I only have his service record which indicates he joined up in 1931 then served in India and Burma. During WW2 in India then France. He was possibly Court Marshalled and reduced to the ranks in March 1943. He was back up to Corporal but due to injuries and malaria he again lost rank due to hospitalization (in Scotland) many times. He was demobbed on the 29th of Oct 1949 to the reserve, his Military Conduct was Exemplary.
