Photographs. Photograph album. Photographs of a picnic with officers of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers. || Lieutenant acting Captain Cyril Douglas Morgan was an officer in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers. He was awarded the Military Cross, being wounded several times. In 1918 he was badly wounded and spent two nights lying unattended on the battlefield. The surgeon later told him that this had probably saved his life as an attempt to move him whilst losing blood would have been fatal. He spent two years in Millbank Hospital, Westminster and many more visits thereafter. The contributor mentions an anecdote concerning Lt Morgan having to pick up an absent officer from a house of ill-repute in Paris. Then later added fruit salts to his chamberpot so that on urinating the contents of the chamberpot frothed - a sure sign apparently of VD! He resumed his career with the Corporation of London, ending as Principal Clerk to the Chamberlain, and volunteered for Civil Defence in the sixties after retiring. He died in 1982 aged 87.

Born in Cardiff, George joined up (with the 14 company 3rd Devonshire) in September 1914 alongside many companions. He was in camp in Exeter in 1914 and sent a postcard from there (see Thomas Percy Vivian Jenkins' story). He went to Rome aboard the SS Elmsgarth in 1916 and sent a postcard to his grandfather while at sea. He died in service. || postcard from Rome to Grandfather photo of George Jenkins and his intended
