on his right arm,hes wearing 4 blue chevrons for 4yrs overseas service in the war,i cant find him in the 1914 or 1915 star rolls,which means he was only entitled to 3 of these chevrons
the eligibility for overseas chevrons was sometimes unfair,many soldiers believed they were entitled to them,but the army regulations said no,soldiers who died in the war were not entitled to them.
