Biography contributed by Geoffrey Gillon

His family emigrated to Australia in 1904, and in March 1916, at the age of eighteen, he enlisted in the Australian Army, training on the outskirts of Perth before the long voyage to Great Britain, where further training awaited him on the plains of Wiltshire.

After a period in hospital in Bristol, he was repatriated to Australia, where he was  demobilized in June 1919.  He later served on the home front in World War II, and lived on into his eighties.
