Thomas Williams enlisted in the 2nd Battalion, Royal Welsh Fusiliers on 5 April 1911. He disembarked in France with the 1st Battalion on 11 August 1914, and likely fought with the Regiment at the First Battle of Ypres and Battle of the Somme. Discharged on 24 October 1916, his MIC adds: ‘Ineligible [for medals], name deleted from roll of R.W. Fus. Brought to charge. Scrapped.’
Note: The above medals appear to be the originals, and so presumably were not scrapped. Sold with copied research.
