Saturday 20th December 1919


Lt. John Robert Dickinson (see 31st January) formally relinquished his commission ‘on completion of service’.


Pte. William Sam Aldrich (see 17th October) was formally discharged to the Army Reserve Class Z; he was also awarded an Army pension of 12s. 8d. per week, having been assessed as having suffered a 20% disability on account of ‘D.A.H.’ (D.A.H. was Disordered Action of the Heart' otherwise known as 'Soldier's Heart' or 'Effort Syndrome').


Pte. Arthur Smith (14204) (see 11th September 1915) was formally discharged from the Army as no longer physically fit for service on account of wounds suffered in action; he had had his left leg amputated. He had originally served with 10DWR and subsequently with 2nd/7th DWR, but, in the absence of a surviving service record, it has not been possible to establish any details of his military career.
