It was in this capacity he found himself at the start of the Great War. Volunteering his services to the army due to his occupation he was not called to the Colours until October 1917. His embarkation was delayed further and it would not be until April 1918 he set foot in France. The final 100 days saw his Battery in heavy action, at Drocourt he describes being gassed “watching the gas filling the valley”. Surviving this he was once again gassed at Bleharies. He comments that on more than one occasion it was not the German bombs falling on the British trenches but those of the new RAF. He also describes seeing the burnt bodies of pilot and observer next to their crashed aircraft and the more mundane daily activate of sleeping, fleas and rats. The diary records the 2nd September 1918 “our troubles began all day shells were falling closer and closer” the telephone line was cut under heavy fire and he went out to find the break and repair it. Returning to his dug out he was informed the wire was cut again. Out he went again under shell fire and German aircraft bombs, on one occasion a shell falling just 20 yards from him. His dugout received a hit and collapsed. In total he was to venture out on five occasions to repair the line, he was informed the following day his name had been put forward for the award of the Military Medal. In October news was received that his brother George serving with the 2nd Bn South Staffordshire Regiment had died of wounds. On the 11th November he was in a rest camp Numugees when he got the news of the Armistice. Proceeding to Cologne he served with the army of occupation until his discharge in October 1919. He returned to his former job at Addenbrooke Hospital until his retirement in 1948, he died in 1976.

England & Wales. Greenough (George Bellas), A Geological Map of England & Wales by G. B. Greenough Esq. F.R.S., President of the Geological Society, published by the Geological Society, 2nd edition, November 1st. 1839, engraved map with contemporary hand colouring, sectionalised and laid on linen on six sheets, calligraphic title with a manuscript number '137' below title, separate 'index of colours', each map sheet approximately 635 x 810 mm, slight offsetting, contained in a contemporary green morocco gilt book box with 'envelope style' lid, slight wear to extremities A bright example of a map which was controversial at the time of its publication, in that Greenough was accused of plagiarising William Smith's earlier and ground breaking geological survey and map of 1815. Greenough was stung enough by the critisicm to issue a written defense of his actions which was published in 'Memoir of a Geological Map of England: to Which are Added, an Alphabetical Index to the Hills, and a List of the Hills Arranged According to Counties (1820)'.William Smith's low social staus and background resulted in his work being largely ignored and the Geological Society of London did indeed plagiarise the map, undercutting Smith's asking price, which eventually pushed Smith to financial ruin and the debtor's prison. Recognition of his role as 'The Father of English Geology' would only follow much later in 1831 when Smith was awarded the Woolaston medal by the Geological Society. Greenough's map is important in its own right and is now recognised as a separate piece of scholarship but unlike Smith it involved no surveying but relied on other surveyors sending him information which he then collated.
