The pressure to join up in the First World War was immense. My husband's grandfather joined up at 14. One of my great-uncles joined up at 14. My great-uncle was killed within weeks. My husband's grandfather was badly injured but survived into his 90s, albeit with a permanent disability.
My g.father joined up in Nov 1914, Died May 1915, he left 7 children at home and a pregnant wife.. he stated his age as 35 when he was older. My dad was born pothumously July 1915…
