Hi Lee,
Stephen Daly disembarked with 11th Bn '8028' as part of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force (Egypt probably) on 06/07/1915.  11th Bn landed at Gallipoli on 06/08/1915.
Stephen was transferred to 1st Garrison Bn of the Northamptonshire Regiment '22188' on 01/01/1916 – probably following sickness / wounding. The Northants had arrived in Egypt in Oct 1915 and later moved to Palestine & Salonika.  ]http://www.longlongtrail.co.uk/army/regiments-and-corps/the-british-infantry-regiments-of-1914-1918/northamptonshire-regiment/[url][/url]
Evidently evacuated home, Stephen was transferred to a Home Service Employment Company of the Labour Corps on 28/07/1917.
Having recovered for overseas duty Stephen joined the Transport Section of the Army Service Corps 'T/386261' on 27/12/1917.  He was transferred to Reserve Class Z (fit) on 01/05/1919.
Have a look at the Bn History.
