Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park 'telephones' week. Howard was my grandfather. He is the one lounging back in his shirt-sleeves. I guess that this was taken while training in England. These troops would eventually be formed into the Royal Corps of Signals. They laid thousands of miles of telephone cables along and between the trenches in France and Belgium. I know that he was at the battle of Ypres, but little else about his war.
