2ND LIEUT. GRAHAM DOUGLAS HEATH

Entered Mr.Oldham's house at Shrewsbury school in September, 1913. The outbreak of  war a year later increased the activities of the School Officer's Training Corps, in which he attained the rank of Corporal before the end of his time.

He was in the VIth Form for over two years, two prizes for  form work having previously fallen to his share. In January, 1918, he was elected to an Exhibition at Magdalene College, Cambridge, and left School in the following March, being 3rd on the list, and a Praepostor. Owing to a slight medical disqualification, he was sent to a cadet school in the Isle of Wight for Coast Defence Gunnery, instead of the Field Artillery as originally intended. From April to September, 1918, he was being trained, and in the latter month gained his commission. Being now fit for general service, he entered on a course of anti-aircraft gunnery at Parkhurst, I.W., Shoeburyness, and Gosport.

Before completion, the Armistice was signed, and after another short period at Parkhurst, he was in chareg for a few weeks of an anti-aircraft gun station at Middlesrough, Yorks. Before long, the demobilisation of students enabled him to go into residence at Cambridge, Jan, 1919, after an experience of over nine months in the Army.
