A rather damaged old photo of Grandad in uniform – presumably on the coast near Bovington (Lulworth Cove?).

Three of Grandad’s chums from his days in the Tank Corps. I’ve no idea of their names.

Grandad in the Tank Corps – he’s right in the middle, third from bottom, with his eyes closed.

Three guys standing by a tank. I’m pretty sure that none of them are Grandad.

After some not very thorough research, I’d say that the tank is a Medium Mark C ‘Hornet’ – which Wikipedia points out ‘was a British tank developed during the First World War, but produced too late to see any fighting’. Much like Grandad I’m pleased to say.
