Title: Army Service Corps horse Transport
Post by: bjo on Friday 09 November 18 23:00 GMT (UK)

Hello folks.
I have now have all the information that I can get on one of my Grandfather's WW1 history died 1917 Passchendaele.
I would like to try to find out some or any information on my other Grandfather.  He was fortunate to have survived the war but I have rumours that he may have been mustard gassed and never fully recovered.
The only information that I have is:
Richard Anthony
Age:   30
Birth Year:    1884
Residence:   11 Dorset St, Islington N
Regiment Name:   Army Service Corps horse Transport
Regiment Number:   027721

I am not 100% sure if this is accurate.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thank you
Brenda

You are fortunate that his army file has survived. Lots of pages to work through:
