Allan joined the 9th Light Horse and embarked from Melbourne on board HMAT A73 Commonwealth on 2 November 1917. Upon arriving in Egypt he was stationed at the Australian reinforcements Camp at Moascar. Allan was treated for synovitis at 31 General Hospital on 3 February 1918. On 6 April he was admitted to 2nd Australian Stationary Hospital with cellulitis due to being knocked by a horse while dismounting.
