Norman Clegg joined the Army Service Corps as a driver on 12 December 1915 and by March 1916, having been advanced to Corporal, was posted to German East Africa. Shortly after arriving there he was appointed Sergeant in charge of stores. Commissioned Second Lieutenant in the same unit, he saw little active service and was mainly engaged on convoy work. He was invalided out of the service in 1918, and was awarded a Silver War Badge.
George Alfred Dale attested for the Royal Field Artillery and served with ‘C’ Battery, 173rd Brigade during the Great War on the Western Front from 28 November 1915. He died on 4 October 1917, and is buried in Rocquigny-Equancourt Road British Cemetery, Manancourt, France.
