Description
Five: Acting Colour Sergeant A. H. Stammers, 5th Battalion, Essex Regiment, later Royal Engineers 1914-15 Star (856 L.Cpl. A. H. Stammers. Essex R.); British War and Victory Medals (856 [A.C.] Sjt. A. H. Stammers. Essex R.) ‘A.C.’ before rank obliterated on both; Territorial Force Efficiency Medal, G.V.R. (250037 Pte. A. H.

Arthur Stammers was born in Maldon, Essex, on 30 October 1894. A pre-War member of the Essex Regiment Territorial Force, he enlisted in the autumn of 1908, aged just 14, and served with the 5th Battalion during the Great War in Gallipoli from 9 August 1915. Subsequently promoted to Acting Colour Sergeant, he was awarded his Territorial Force Efficiency Medal in on 1 May 1919 (presumably though, given that the medal is named to the rank of Private, and with war service counting double, he probably earned the medals somewhat earlier). He saw further service with the Royal Engineers, although it is not known if he was entitled to any campaign medals for the Second World War. He died in Maldon in 1972. Sold with copied research.
