World War One / Re: RNVR First World War

Pres 111 is the pay and admin dept for the RNVR - not an actual ship it was a "stone frigate"

I think he will have been shore based at a Telegraph station up on (Islay)  Portnahaven on the coast of Scotland
He may well have seen some tragedy with these two US Troopship losses

Morning
Im revisiting a Non Comm case

Can anyone that has access to Fold 3 Pensions please look at

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/collections/61588/records/21865671?tid=&pid=&queryId=5834e71a-eac2-4dff-8b5d-fb3285ee40e9&_phsrc=jnv3989&_phstart=successSource

Oliver Tetley 8473 Died from TB post discharge - the pension record says something i cant make out about pulmonary tuberculosis ----active service

I have his service record but maybe the pension record can attribute his TB to service and therefore submit it to CWGC

Thanks

Does anything in records mention that military service caused his illness?

If it does there could be a case for recognition by CWGC if he was still in uniform in 1915 he should be eligible

Having looked at his record I believe he should be added to the CWGC roll id contact in from the cold
