Also the SWB card is a different Herbert Short.
The SWB index card is Herbert Short 7676.
It doesn't say when he got wounded so where has Dec. 16th 1916 come from?

Fmly 7/4508, Silver War badge No.201617, what does that mean?

From your first post. This means he was Formerly 4508 in the 7th Battalion. They were a pre war Territorial Force who were given six digit numbers in March 1917.

Each SWB was stamped with a number and his was stamped with 201617.

The second card is for a Regular soldier who enlisted in 1904 with number 7676. At the time of his discharge he was serving in 85th Training Reserve Battalion, then based in Hornsea.

Cheers Ken

The process I am having to go through is one of elimination.  All I know is that one of Captain Walter Shorts brothers was serving and another was wounded.  This is tough as I cant find records for 2 other brothers serving...

Hi,

I currently own the WW1 medals to Herbert Short. If you are interested I would be more than happy to sell back to you at cost.
