    Recommended Posts

    WW1 Single British war medal, Leo Pierre D'Andria was born in Bradford in 1886 and worked for his father (who came from Turkey but I believe to be Maltese) and who was a yarn/textile merchant in Bradford (Leo eventually took over the business) and who in later life a president and treasurer of the Bradford Chess Club (see photo), he died in 1964.

    Leo Joined the 1/6 West Yorkshire Regiment and was sent to France arriving on the 16 April 1915 as a Private but was soon promoted to Acting Sgt and attached to the 7th Intelligence Police company of the VII Corps over the course of the war was attached to the 6th Intelligence Police company, VI Corps and the 4th Intelligence Police company, IV Corps under the guise of the 10th
    (Intelligence) Battalion Royal Fusiliers.
