Entirely feasible looks like this lad enlisted into army reserve in 1915 subsequently getting the call in 1918 Mother Alice?? Number 44  house number Babylon ?
Medical discharge 1918...what does 1911 census give as occupants of the street any lads of same name there maybe an absent voters list to compare at your local library in Chorley
