My grandfather Joseph Bullock, who was a Private in the Devonshire Regiment and Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry. He served in Mesopotamia and India. I have some Christmas cards that he sent to my mother and some English postcards sent while training.


Editor's Comment:
Postcard of a painting of an Officer (a General, according to the gold lace on the peak of the cap) cradling Child, with caption: 'Say Good-Night, Daddy, not Good-bye!'

Pte. 3744 (later 202513) Joseph W. G. Bullock, 2/5th Bn. Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry, later served with the Devonshire Regiment (service no. 78526).
