Hello   :)

The only birth registration I can find in Rugby (district for Stretton on Dunsmore) around that time is this one:

Harry Rathbone  Q1. 1908  Rugby  Vol 6d.  P. 643

There are 3 girls and one other boy registered in the District between 1907 and 1912.  The other boy is Ernest - no other Harry or Henry.

You might be best posting a request for his military records on the Armed Forces Board -  folks on there will be able to tell you where to look   ;)

Census information is Crown Copyright from TNA.
Titchfield, Hampshire: Reed,  Fielder, Cawte, Goddard.
Kent:  Float,  Cutbush. 
Wallasey, Cheshire: Carroll, Ledsham.
Liverpool : Horsfall, Prescott
