At first glance, the binoculars on the left look like any other ,
ww1 binoculars ,
nothing special about them,
As the main page link says, this is a tale of a pair of binoculars ,
As you can see he did have a
few medical problems ,
and he was discharged and transferred
To the south lancs Regiment 8-06-17
Then you would be wrong,
They belonged to : Temp SUB LT
George Jeffery DRAKE BATTALION RND (MEF) = Dardinelles
This white building
below
is the same address
today .
On the 9Th of June 1917 he transfers to the,
South Lancs Regiment ,
as a Captain,
as seen below.
NOW! this is where the story gets interesting
as another name appears on the bottom of the case
Namely his brother Captain C E Jeffery ,
22 Coy H Battalion Royal Tank Corps,
who apparently was no "shrinking Violet "
see Below
The two names on the case does beg the question "WHY"?
we wil have to put that one down to ,
one of lifes imponderable questions......
