hmmm  ok.. (damn thought i'd got him!)  but of course he may not have been a casualty

do the scan, save it as a jpg ( not above 300 kb) click additional options, attach, and find the scan where you saved it on your pc

chris/cass,the border regt said he joined them in 1915,he may have served in another regt before this or he could have been a time served soldier who re=enlisted and joined the border regt so the man that you found could be john,mack

Tried to post scanned papers but too big. Not enough IT skills yet to reduce it but will keep trying. If I could find that John Sloans enlistments papers it would confirm if it was him. I have tried the national archives website but can never find what I need ( I  paid a researcher to find Daniels Sloans papers) Cass

I have also found another John Sloan who was shot at dawn in July 1916. He was aprivate in the 1/4th bt Royal Lancaster Regiment. I got his court martial papers but they do not have any personal details on so again I do not know if it is him. I tried finding his enlistment papers on the archives site but did not know where to start as it all appears to be numbers!!!! Cass
