THE FIRST WORLD WAR: MY PATERNAL GRANDFATHER

This is my grandfather, George Frederick Evans who joined the East Lancashire Regiment in 1915.  He was gassed in 1917 but survived with one lung.  The gas attack contributed to his death in the 1950s and is stated in his Death certificate.  A delayed fatality of the War to End All Wars.  

If he hadn't survived, my father would never have been born and this blog would not exist!  Isn't history fascinating?
