Hi
I have had a very successful search over the last few days, using ancestry, to obtain some records for Thomas Poole b 1893 who was initially in the Essex Regiment and then seemed to transfer to the Gloucester Regiment. He was a sniper and I know that he was hit by an enemy sniper and lay in the trenches in France for 3 days, being gassed, before he was picked up and taken to wherever. I also know that he spent some time Bristol in hospital recuperating. What I would like to find is the actual detail of his military record, where he went, what else he did etc but have no absolutely no idea where to search. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks in anticipation.
