Morgan, you will find John was promoted to Acting Corporal,Corporal,Sergeant,demoted back to Corporal and back to Private .As far as I can make out for insolence. He did receive 3 medals though.He must have been injured in France, because he was on injury leave in England where he met Dorothy. They both were close to each other at Upper Tooting,London, and they were married at Wandsworth. Dorothy's Father was CHARLES GARIBALDI BARRETT, I did have her Mothers name somewhere but at this moment I can't seem to find it.
