He went over 25 August 1914 possibly a Stretcher Bearer

Found he was Silver Badged Discharged on 14 June 1916 as Pte 33574 John Parry



His Medals stolen

Family are keen to find anything about his Military Career

Just curious: Is this man in your family tree? Or are you doing research on behalf of someone else?
