Stew Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 I recently bought a silver pocket watch on a New Zealand on line trading platform. Of interest to us on this Forum is an inscription on the back of the watch { SERGT. DR F. G. Lemon 2/6 R.Warwick Regt France 1916 } The watch has Birmingham silver Hallmarks from 1915. The watch inscription refers to 6th Battalion, Royal Warwickshire Regiment. I noted that this regiment was involved in France in 1916 at the battles of Somme and Fromelles. I am interested in learning a bit more about Sargeant Doctor F G Lemon. I am wondering if someone on this forum can provide me with any details of F G Lemon's military service record, or suggest a way for me to obtain his military service record.? I attach a photo of the back plate of the watch which as you will note is has the barely legible inscription. Thanks in advance. Best Regards,Thomas
Trooper_D Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 I think this might be Sergeant Driver rather than Sergeant Doctor, Stew.
